What age is the minimum to put a kitten on solids?
It's just.. the other 3 I am handraising are doing fine on my new bottles, but Smudge is refusing to suckle, despite always trying to suckle his brothers.
His only interest in the teat was chomping on it momentarily.
I tried reverting back to a syringe but he still refused to take more than 10mls
So I heated up some whiskas junior and he launched himself into it, and ate approx 3 teaspoonfuls worth.
Is this ok? He really doesn't want milk but he is only 4 weeks old.. obviously I am not talking about removing KMR altogether, but is it ok to make solids his main diet?
