Can you feed kittens, baby formula?

Answer 1

everyone is correct in saying no, because it will not just make them sick, it has a very high possibility of killing them...to high in iron, not high enough in needed protein and other nutrients.

Answer 2

I wouldn't give them baby formula. Instead go to your petsmart store and pick up a can of kitten formula just made for them. I had 2 male kittens 4 weeks old that I fed. You have to feed them often with a eye dropper. And you have to get them to urinate.

Answer 3

No. If there is no mother around, kittens need a special kitten formula and bottle. They need to be fed every 2-3 hours around the clock.

Answer 4

Absolutely not! The mixture is way too strong for them and can cause diarrhea. You should go to a pet supply store such as Petsmart or Petco and purchase a kitten milk product. Kittens respond to this well and is a healthy alternative to natural mother's milk.

Answer 5

Definitely not. Kitten milk replacement is ideal. But keep in mind that a good kitten food moistened with milk replacement or water (never cows milk) to a mush is often acceptable to kittens as young as 2-3 weeks

Answer 6

When you have little kittens like that, you want to make sure that you're giving the same or better than what the nursing queen can provide. I've been in the same situation and I've found it best to purchase special cat milk formula. This way you're sure that they are getting the proper nurishment.

Answer 7

Petsmart carries kitten formula. They h ave it for several different stages. Kittens need to be fed every few hours, so run out and get some now.

Answer 8

Not as a steady diet. Baby food won't contain the nutrients they need, such as taurine.

It can be used as bribe food or as a treat. The meaty ones, or perhaps even the occasional veggie. I wouldn't feed any desserts, assuming they even make them.

EDIT: Oh, I assumed you meant baby FOOD. Well, what the heck, here's an answer for a question you didn't ask.

Answer 9

Not recommended. Feed kittens foor formulated for kittens under one year of age.

Answer 10

No absolutely not! There is a kitten milk formula at the petstore. It is mothers replacement milk.
