Once the baby mouse has opened its eyes, you can begin to introduce solid foods such as baby cereal (rice or oatmeal). Mix the dry cereal with whichever milk formula you have been using (goat milk, KMR, Esbilac). Add enough formula to the dry cereal so that it is a consistency that can still be fed through a syringe. You can mix a little bit of baby food in with the dry cereal as well, such as applesauce, to make the taste more appealing to your baby mouse. Gently squirt the cereal mixture out of the tip of the syringe just enough so that the cereal is peeking out of the hole. Hold the tip of the syringe with the glob of cereal in front of your baby mouse's mouth until he licks it off. You can also squirt a small glob onto the palm of your hand and allow your baby mouse to lick it up that way. Continue giving your baby mouse both cereal and formula at feeding time until he is 3-4 weeks, at which time he can be given regular solid mouse food and a water bottle.

How do you ween a kitten?

Typically, the mother does this. However, if you own a kitten who does not have a mother and is at the proper stage for weaning, do like a mother cat would do: No matter how much it begs, it should not live on a diet of milk.
