Our Kittens are now 3 weeks old and doing very well.
At present they are on a 3hr feed schedule but have got them to go a little longer during the night so we can at least get some sleep time.
Could someone fill me in on how the feeding schedule should progress from here, and at what stage do we start to introduce some more solid food and start weaning ?
Thanks Robbie

For background info on Robbie's kittenshttp://www.thecatsite.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=124730

I haven't had any bottle kittens either but my mom raised kittens need to be strong enough to walk to the food bowl and litter box. Generally around 4 to 5 weeks they start to eat kitten kibble. I really like Royal Canin baby cat. It has nice little bits they can manage.
