My sweet kitten

[HermioneG]

Hi everyone!
My cat has become a mom! I'm so excited! The only thing that bothers me is that a kitten refuses to eat wet or dry food. The mother cat feeds her, but I want to add a little cat food to her diet. Does anyone have any tips? Maybe I should try making food for her at home?

If she’s young and mum is still feeding her then that’s all she needs. I think weaning is around 12 weeks (someone please correct me if this is old school).

Mum will start to ween her when she’s old enough.

It’s a bit earlier than that, I’m sure they are ready to leave at about 8 weeks aren’t they?
The vets thought when I took mine for his first jabs that he was actually only about 4/5 weeks old. I bought in good faith and was pretty annoyed/upset about it but he was absolutely fine.

Eva is Scottish Fold, 6 weeks. I've tried Hill's canned cat food and dry kibbles with water. Tomorrow I will try Trout Dinner (the recipe https://catspurfection.com/homemade-cat-food/ looks easy and healthy). I will do this for the first time and don't know how she will react to this meal.

I used to liquidise food for kittens at first. If you let the mother eat it as well, they soon get curious and follow her lead.

Very cute kitten.
