I started them out with KMR mixed with canned kitten food...kind of made a slop out of it. and put it on a plate. Then I brought them over to it and placed some on their lower lip, which they would immediately lick off. You can also smear some on their paws (smeared so that they don't just fling it all over the place). Most will naturally lick it off, if only to clean it off.Originally Posted by Channy
ah alrighty
and any info on how to get kittens to eat kitten food =p?
Good point, I forgot about that. You are right, that is when they start to need a litter box and it's amazing that they know that is where they should go.It is probably also time to introduce the litter box, as momma won't clean them up once they start eating solid food (or so I remember). Make sure to use a non-clumping litter.
