How long do kittens need kitten food?
Strictly speaking, healthy kittens do not "need" a specific kitten food. A kitten can eat adult cat food at any age, provided they are fully weaned. The nutritional needs of an adult cat and a kitten are the same; it is just the amounts that should be fed to an adult or kitten that are different. Kittens will often eat more than an adult cat, as they are still growing and developing, and need to be fed "little and often" due to their smaller stomachs. Adult cats need less food than kittens, and most are comfortable being fed twice a day.
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 on adult food is absolutely fine. If you are unsure about the current kitten food you are feeding, compare the ingredients between the the kitten and adult versions and see what differences (if any) there are.
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.
Can you give a kitten dry cat food at 4 weeks old?
Kittens usually begin the weaning process around 4-6 weeks of age. They begin by taking an interest, or picking at their mother's solid food. At this age they will still be suckling and getting nutrients from their mother, but putting a tiny bit of wet food down every few hours will entice them to eat. You could see if they will lick food off your fingertip or off their own paws. This first stage can take several days.
Mushed up wet food, or wet food that is throughly mixed with a little water or kitten milk is the best type of food for them right now. It is easy for them to eat and digest. It is advisable not to try dry food as, even softened with water, kittens may still not be able to eat it. As the kittens get older and bigger, you can slowly decrease the amount of water or kitten milk you use in the food, and leave slightly larger chunks for them to chew.
Be sure to feed them from a plate and not a bowl, as it is easier for the kittens to pick up the food.

Why do cats walk weird and fall over when you put clothes on them?
A few explanations:
* When you put clothes on a cat, it throws off their sense of balance. If they can't balance, they can't walk straight.
* When cats get dressed up, they think it's time to party. If they hit the catnip too hard, they have a tendency to fall over in their inebriated state.
* Cats are picky about their style. Unless you are dressing them in couture, they are most likely falling over in protest. Try dressing them in an original Giorgio Armani or Alexander McQueen creation, and you will be surprised by their reaction.

As for claws, cats do not naturally lose claws (although the outer layers will shed - which is what keeps a cat's claws sharp). A cat's claws are attached to their toe bones, so are very strong and are not meant to be removed.
