Feeding a kitten fish once in a while as a treat shouldn't be harmful, but if you feed it too much fish it could have some nutritional deficiencies. This is because nutrients in some types of fish can cause vitamins and minerals to be poorly absorbed. May I recommend dry food, because my cats have been eating it for as long as we have had them, with occasional bits of chicken or fish thrown in for good measure They also drink water instead of milk because it is more healthy and hydrating. Hope this helps you!

Why do kittens need to eat food that is labeled specifically for kittens?

Kittens need large amounts of energy. About two to three times more than an adult cat. Kittens also need a lot of protein. Make sure the food you offer is made for kittens. Your pet will need to eat kitten-formula food until she reaches maturity, at about one year of age.

What type of cat eats its babies?

A mean one ;( A cat will usually not eat her babies. If one is dead, she will eat that one, to avoid attracting predators and other toms who will come if they smell them. In the wild, the toms will kill and possibly eat the kittens if they are not his, so that the next kittens the queen has will be his, but otherwise, cats do not eat kittens.


Why would your cat kill and eat her kittens when they were about 2 weeks?

Some mother cats do this for many reasons, sometimes it's because the kittens are ill/deformed... or if someone has been handling the kittens and then the mother can smell their scent on them In both cases it is natural instinct. If the mother cat smells quite different scent in her kittens, she may think kill them for protection. If the kittens are ill/deformed, she also eats them before they die and bring diseases to the rest of kittens. Also dying kittens or dead kitten corpse marks the smell for the predators to notice where she lives.
