Normallly weaning can begin at 5-6 weeks, so yes, try some kitten glop, or some kitten wet food with water or catmilk mixed in and see how things go.

i would say about 5-6 weeks aswell. be carfull feeding chicken , some cats/kittens will get a bit to used to it and not want to eat kitten food
.
but like jen said kitten food mixed with water so its like a mush. or kitten milk if the water doesnt intrest them.

How Cute! I love tabby's! I also think about 6 weeks old....i put water in Iams Kitten wet food (chicken). Slowly I am adding dry food. Eventually they will be eating dry food and a 1/2 of a can of wet 2 x's per day.
Good Luck
