How do you get a kitten to eat kitten food?

Answer:First you start out by just giving them luke warm Kitten Replacer Milk (KMR). When the kittens are around six weeks old you can start adding little bit of wet cat food. As they get older and you start to wean them onto more solid food. Don't give them hard food straight away; use this:Take some cat food and kitten milk. Put it all in a blender until it isn't clumpy anymore, then warm it for 30 seconds or less and then give it to them. After they have gotten used to it, gradually make it chunkier until they are eating solely kitten food. After that the kittens should start eating there food graciously. I have 5 6-week old kittens and I just started this recipe and it is cheap and affordable. They should love it and you could use leftover meat like cooked chicken or turkey as a treat.Answer:Kittens around six to eight weeks old can start to be introduced to solid food as this is around the time they start to be weaned off the mother's milk. Try mashing up some good quality wet/canned food (look for a brand with a high named meat content and no grain, such as Felidae or Blue Buffalo to avoid tummy upsets) for them. Mixing the food with a little bit of KMR (Kitten Milk Replacer) at first helps the kittens get used to solid food. Gradually, over the course of several weeks, decrease the amount of water/milk in the food as the kittens become more confident with eating.


How do you stop a cat from eating live indoor flower plants?

There are different ways to stop this, but one way is to grow grass inside little window pots for your cats to eat. Encourage them to eat this grass and praise them when they do, and when they eat the other plants spray them with water or hit them lightly on the hip to discourage them from eating those plants.

Will your kitten ever stop biting?

Kittens bite not to hurt but to play. Your kitten will likely grow out of this. Adult cats will also bite. Cats usually bite when they're playing, trying to get your attention or warning you not to do something. For example if you scratch or rub your cats lower back he/she might bite you to tell you he/she doesn't like you doing that or just isn't in the mood for it. The best things to do is to learn your kitten's behaviour, especially how she acts when she's about to bite. Refrain from playing with her with your hands and use toys instead. When your kitten bites, you can either try and distract her attention with a toy, or make your hand or arm completely limp. A kitten will quickly grow bored of unmoving "prey" and will let go. Ignoring the kitten for a few minutes afterwards will also help. Kittens love attention, so a kitten will quickly learn that biting, scratching and other behaviours will get it ignored - so will stop such behaviour. NEVER hit your cat; this will just make it fearful of you. Cats respond poorly to negative reinforcement.
