My cats started eating dry food at about 5 months, although dry food is really just a convenience food for us humans, as it is easy to put in a bowl and leave for several hours. However, dry food is certainly not a requirement for a cat's diet. A lot of dry foods contain a high amount of grains and cereals and rather low levels of actual meat in them.

How old are kittens when they start to eat cat food?
By the time a kitten is four to six weeks old, most kittens will begin to take an interest in their mother's food. It is then time to introduce some solid food in the form of a fresh raw meat diet. Feed a kitten in a very shallow dish, not a deep bowl, and be sure to warm the food to at least room temperature. Filtered water is preferable to chlorinated tap water. Cats do not require much water when fed on this species-appropriate diet, but fresh water should be available nonetheless.
When can kitten eat food on their own?
Kittens around six to eight weeks old start taking an interest in their mother's food, so can start to be introduced to solid food as this is around the time they start to be weaned off the mother's milk. Try mashing up some good quality wet/canned food (look for a brand with a high named meat content and no grain, such as Felidae or Blue Buffalo to avoid tummy upsets) for them. Mixing the food with a little bit of KMR (Kitten Milk Replacer) at first helps the kittens get used to solid food. Gradually, over the course of several weeks, decrease the amount of water/milk in the food as the kittens become more confident with eating. The weaning transition should not be rushed. From then on, kittens should be fed kitten food until they are done growing, which is around nine months to one year. A high quality kitten food that has a high meat content (labelled Chicken, Turkey etc. as the first ingredient) is best as it has extra nutrition for growing kittens.

A zebra foal will start eating grass, or at least mimic what its mother eats as young as a few days to a week old. Most of the time, though, the foal depends on its mother's milk for nutrition over the more coarser and harder-to-digest grasses of the African savannah.
