Cats need to nurse until they are four weeks old. (It is best to consume breast milk until one month old. In some countries such as the United States, it is recommended that cats consume breast milk for 2 to 3 months)
From the fourth week onwards, mix cat milk and a little canned cat food in a shallow dish and heat to lukewarm (if heated in a microwave, it only takes a few seconds. Stir evenly after heating, because the microwave heats unevenly. ), let them try and get used to the taste of canned cats, and slowly they will eat from the basin. Gradually decrease the amount of cat milk and increase the amount of canned cat food.
After a week, you can add dry kitten food soaked in warm water to the basin, gradually stop adding cat milk to the bowl, and reduce the amount of cat milk in the bottle until it is gone.
By the time kittens are six weeks old, they should be eating their own kitten food and drinking water from a bowl.
The whole process should be done step by step and don't be too hasty. (Do not use a cat food bowl that is too large for kittens. Experience has proven that kittens often use overly large cat food bowls as cat toilets, defecate or urinate in them, or eat directly while standing in the cat food bowl.)
