I posted a thread a while ago about the kitten that I recently adopted. After she eats Jainy seems to get hiccups. Is this possible or is it something bad? If this is just hiccups is there anything that I can do to stop/avoid them?

She is about 8 weeks old and eats regular dry food and canned food in the mornings.

To try to avoid those hiccups, I would try giving her less food at a time, or doing things to slow her down...like spreading the food out on a large flat plate (like a dinner plate).
