How should newborn kittens be cared for and fed?
First, in terms of feeding. Newborn kittens obtain nutrients from the mother cat's breast milk, so owners do not need to prepare cat food separately. You only need to feed the mother cat well, ensure comprehensive nutrition and sufficient milk, and supervise whether the mother cat feeds the kittens in a timely manner. Of course, if the mother cat does not feed the kittens in time or because there is not enough milk, then artificial feeding is necessary and professional cat and goat milk powder is prepared for the kittens.
Feeding time. The younger the cat, the more it should be fed according to the principle of small meals and frequent meals. This can further reduce the pressure on the gastrointestinal tract of the young cat. And feed them regularly and quantitatively every day, and don’t feed them every meal. After the cat is successfully weaned, it is best to continue feeding the cat for a period of time in the same way as the cat was breastfeeding. As the cat grows up, slowly adjust its diet. This will give the cat enough time to adapt to the new eating habits, and there will be no problems with the cat's gastrointestinal discomfort.
Special attention should be paid to feeding newborn kittens. The food they feed must be nutritious and balanced. And don’t change the kitten’s food frequently in the beginning. Frequent food changes will only worsen the cat’s gastrointestinal irritation. Moreover, according to the growth stage of the cat, the food and frequency of feeding will be changed from time to time to achieve a comprehensive nutritional effect.
