if they are eating the dry food on their own that is great. just make sure that they continue to nurse from the mother for at least a few more weeks, but it is ok to continue to introduce hard foods into their diet. try mixing some hot water with the kibble to soften it up for them since their teeth are just developing.

For a puppy to eat dry cat food once or twice won't harm him, but cat food is NOT for continuous dog feeding. The dog will soon get malnutrition.
