May be of interest to those who are paying too much for kitten milk.

Thanks for the link Angie, I may well try making some of the cat food recipes. =^..^=

Re: Poor little kittens!

Be very careful with these sort of substitutes.

We are talking about 2 week old kittens - they are hardly going to break the bank if you buy the recommended milk from the vet.

They're actually 4+ weeks old now! Doesn't time fly? And you don't know the state of my bank account Fred!:lol:
(I wish that wasn't a "LOL" but it is!) Nope, vets are not an option.
I'm merely trying to put a few extra drops into a kitten that is unable to suck as well, as she's got trouble breathing, so she's losing weight fast and may be dehydrated as well. It's unlikely she'll survive anyway. I'm actually making it up half strength as I feel her need for water may be greater than for milk. But she's not really taking any anyway. Haven't checked whether she's survived the night yet!
