To get kittens to stop nursing, gradually reduce their access to their mother's milk and provide them with solid food instead. Additionally, you can separate the kittens from their mother for longer periods of time to discourage nursing. It's important to monitor their health and ensure they are getting proper nutrition during this transition.

If it is very young and is still nursing then PLEASE DONT DO IT. The kittens will want to drink that instead and stop nursing from their mother, therefore dying from lackof nutrients. If the mother is dead, then buy a substitute. If the kittens have stopped nursing, I still wouldn't let them drink it until they are three months old because it is hard for them to digest it at such a young age. Hope this helps:)
