In order for the kitten to grow up healthy and make you happy every day, it is necessary to provide him with proper nutrition. Don't think cats are omnivorous. Improper feeding can lead to health problems, and treating animals is troublesome and expensive.
Instructions
Step 1
The kitten receives the first complementary food after his eyes opened and he began to walk on his own. Usually, kittens find the bowl themselves, but the food of an adult cat does not suit them. Begin to train yourself to eat from a bowl of plain water. Wet the baby's mouth or let him watch the older cat drink. After accustoming to water, you can give low-fat kefir ("Agusha") or milk. The transition to dense foods should be gradual. But consider whether the cat is feeding him. If the cat has already completely stopped feeding the kittens, then they need enhanced nutrition.
Step 2
The first dense food at the age of three to four weeks can be cottage cheese or porridge in the water. Boil oatmeal porridge, add finely chopped carrots or zucchini. If the kid ate the porridge with pleasure, next time it can be boiled in chicken broth. By one and a half months, the kitten should receive 6-7 feedings per day. In the morning it is better to give porridge with vegetables, during the day, portions of finely chopped lean meat (chicken, turkey, rabbit, beef), and in the evening to pamper with cottage cheese or boiled egg.
Step 3
It is up to you to give the kitten raw or boiled meat. There is no clear answer to this question. If you are sure of the quality and freshness of the meat, then it is enough to rinse it well, freeze it, and scald it with boiling water before feeding. In no case should kittens and adult animals be given boiled bones. It is better to buy special treats or bones for strengthening the teeth at the pet store, which the cat will chew on.
Step 4
If you don't have time to cook specifically for the kitten, use canned food for animals. They can be in jars or small bags (spider). Such canned food contains a meat base with vegetables or cereals with the addition of vitamins and microelements.
Step 5
After two months, the kitten can be transferred to dry food. To begin with, all feed is given soaked in one of the feedings. Gradually, the entire daily diet should consist of "drying", and meat or cottage cheese is given to animals 2-3 times a week as a treat.
