My kittens where born on May 23. I have looked at the baby calender and they said by July 3 they should be weaned. Well they smell the cat food now and act interested. I went and got kitten food and its chunky? I tried to feed them and the mother ate it. Didn't give them time to try and she has food out constantly. Can I take her away to feed them or will she need to show them? She is a first time mother. The kittens are still sucking but the nipples looked a little flat. This is the first time for me with kittens and the mother is a stray. So I just need some help. They are already bathing themselves and play fighting they are darlings. There even attempting to run. I am leaving this Sunday until July 5th and I want to be able to give my mother instructions. (She knows nothing about them either) The calendar said fully weaned by July 3 and I won't be here. Should i feed them now?
Thanks
