How much too feed


I had to tell you all three of the kittens ate on there own this morning. They dont like wet food but are having whiskas kitten biscuits crushed up with water. They lapped it up. There's only cracker that's not trying at all. I made some milk up and she tried to lap that up but she is scared to eat and backs up. Never weaned kittens and never want to again how much should they have and how often. It was just one of those magic moments that wow they like food.

Little and often Jane. I don't like the sound of little Cracker not wanting to eat - is she put off by the other kittens? Could you try feeding her on her own? While they are so small, I'd try at least four meals a day.

Re: How much too feed


She looks but then is realy realy scared and runs back too maisey. Next time i give them food i will try her by herself. Out of all of them she is a real mummys girl. She does drink water as it is always down. I have tried her on plastic plates, minature saucers, saucers. I wipe food on her paw around her face but she hates it. I also wont let her feed from maisey before she has tried the food. She uses the litter tray for both as well. They will only let me feed them as well. We went out for the day on saturday and they didnt even try it.

Re: How much too feed


Wow, raising kittens is more complicated than I thought! Never been there/done that so no helpful suggestions. Hang in there!
