    What do I do now?

    I have 3 kittens I found that were about 3 weeks old when I got them. I have had them for almost 2 weeks and have bottle fed them. Now I would like to know if anyone has any ideas on how to wean the kittens. I have tried Tuna Fish and a kitten formula that is called Second Step. But they still would rather drink from the bottle and I want to make sure they get enough nutrietion.

    Any ideas?

    Sounds like a question for Aly who has fostered many young kittens. Aly?

    Jackee,

    Take a little bit of formula and pour it over a can of kitten food. Put it in a saucer or a plate. Make sure you put down newspaper as kittens can get VERY messy. They will actually walk in it till they get the idea. Put their face in it gently so they get the taste of it and let them go to town. You'll be amazed how quick they'll learn. Good luck!! Let us know how you make out.
