What do you feed a kitten when there is no cat-food?

Answer 1

i wouldn't give your kitten regular milk as this may give him/her loose stool and dehydrate them. I would suggest non dairy creamer if you have to make it thru the night until you can get to the store to get mothers milk replacement which is the best choice for a replacement if the mother cant or wont feed or even if you get a kitten that you cant get to eat once you bring it home.

Answer 2

Meats such as chicken, turkey and beef. However no foods will have all the nutrients a cat needs unless it is a good quality cat food. Feeding a few meals of other foods will not be harmful, but feeding a non-balanced meal over a long period of time will cause the kitten to become malnourished.

Answer 3

first answer: milk or cat food.

second answer: You need kitten formula. You can't feed cat food to a baby kitten that isn't weaned yet, because you'll kill it. Cow milk will also kill it. The baby kitten needs it's mother's milk but if it's orphaned then it needs special kitten formula. It's very difficult to hand-rear baby animals. You should call an expert immediately for help, like a vet, or else you will kill the kitten.

Third answer: The second answer is correct. One note I will add is that goat's milk can be used (I have seen it used successfully myself and in references online), but the replacement formula is best if you can find a way to get it. I have attached a related link with good information about rescuing orphaned kittens.

Answer 4
