What age should a kitten start eating cat grass?

My cats started eating dry food at about 5 months, although dry food is really just a convenience food for us humans, as it is easy to put in a bowl and leave for several hours. However, dry food is certainly not a requirement for a cat's diet. A lot of dry foods contain a high amount of grains and cereals and rather low levels of actual meat in them.


Can you leave wet kitten food out overnight?

You cannot leave wet food out for longer than half an hour, as it will begin to dry up in the air and become rancid. A kitten will not starve if left without food during the night, although you could put a small amount of dry food to leave overnight if your kitten seems particularly hungry.

Why isn't my kitten eating dry food and wet food she only drinks cat milk and is 1 and an half months?

Is the kitten still nursing, or is she being bottle fed?How are her litter mates doing with this? The kittens are still young, and dry food may be just too hard for them right now. Dry kibble is incredibly hard and brittle and young kittens especially may be put off. Your kitten may not even like the taste of the food (this isn't uncommon in cats). If your kitten is refusing a certain brand of food, try another. Even try some wet food to see if you kitten prefers that. I can suggest to you is that you see your vet. She's about the right age for her first shots anyway.


Can you feed a 3 week old kitten buttermilk if the mom is not feeding it?

All cow's milk is not good for animals including buttermilk. Will cause diarrhea and is of no health benefit. You need to find a formula such as esbilac to replace the Mother's milk. Get a bottle too, can find them in the pet stores and feed the kitten about every 3 hours. In about another week, you can start to add softened kitten dry food, but soak it first until soft. Pour some of the esbilac on top of the kitten food. Offer that to your kitten and she or he will start to chow down on that. You can switch to dry kitten food completely at about 5 weeks of age.


Can't afford kitten cat food at this time can i feed my 7 month old kitten with adult cat food?

Yes, of course. The nutritional needs of an adult cat and a kitten are the same; its just the amounts that should be fed to an adult or kitten that are different. For the most part, kitten and adult food from the same brand are the same, or at the very least, very similar in terms of ingredients and nutrients. Feeding a kitten adult food is absolutely fine. The biggest difference between the two is usually texture. Kitten food is usually softer in texture or has smaller pieces. Dry adult food pieces may be too big for a small kitten, but wet food can easily be mashed up in order to be eaten more easily. Premium cat food brands are suitable for both adults and kittens and do not offer a "kitten" range.
