I've been starting Oreo's kittens with solid food at 4 weeks. But you've got to make it mushy, by soaking it in water or kitten milk replacer... we use water. The kittens still haven't tried it yet though. You should put them up for adoption at 8 weeks. It's so good of you to take them in!

You can use the milk people drink?
