Caring for kittens
- Wash hands before handling and feeding kittens.
- Generally feed 3 to 4% of body weight per meal, with 8 to 10 meals per day for the first 3 weeks (e.g. 25% of body weight over a 24-hour period at birth). The average birth weight of a kitten is 120 grams.
- Frequent feeding of small quantities reduces the risk of digestive disorders.
- Boil fresh water before reconstituting KittenGro. Allow time for cooling.
- Reconstituted KittenGro can be refrigerated for up to 24 hours.
- KittenGro reconstituted must be given at 38°C (body temperature). Use a thermometer.
- Discard any unused portion after 24 hours.
- Clean ALL feeding utensils and equipment after each feeding: rinse with lukewarm water, wash with detergent in hot water (80°C), rinse with clean water (ideally a 10% bleach solution) and dry thoroughly with a clean towel.
- At 4 weeks, start teaching kittens to drink from a saucer.
- Weaning can begin at 4 weeks with the introduction of wet solid food.
- Give kittens fresh water from 3 weeks of age.
- Continue to give milk to weak or recovering kittens until their growth rate normalizes.
