At what age do kitties start eating moist food ?

I have a mama cat and she seems to be staying longer and longer away from the babies. Should i put some wet food down for them ?

you are one subliminaly perverted one. ::tsk:: ::tsk::

6 to 8 weeks

Yes, you should put moist food down. When the mother starts to spend more time away from them it means she is weening them. The average age for the kittens to start eating is 3-5 weeks old.

about six weeks you ween them then it is at your discretion

They usually are weaned around 6 weeks. Mom will show signs of not wanting to nurse because they have teeth. One of my mama cats brought the kittens to me when they were ready to be weaned! It took me a few minutes to realize what she was doing. But that doesn't usually happen. You have to start the kittens out with watered down food and should put them on newspapers because it gets messy.

well i guess aroud to mouths i have kittens pefore so ya just try mix milk up with the food if the cat eats it then thats the rite time

a kitten can start off eating moist food between the ages of 4 and 6 weeks so yeah long as they have sum teeth there good to go and the mama cat is just trying to wean them ..

Asolutely! Mom is weaning....They'll love Iams Kitten food!

i think you should take your kitties 2 the vet 2 get some advice from an actual veternarian

About six weeks. Put some wet food down for them but dont force them.

www.purrinlot.com/kittenbirthcalendar.htm Put in kitty's birthday and it will give you a round-a-bout time.Usually around 3-4 weeks they can have soft food, but should nurse with mommy as long as she'll let them. At least 8 weeks.

You should start feeding it moist food when you get. By the time your allowed to take a kitten away from its mother its usually more than ready.

how should i know?i'm just a kid!

about 6 weeks but we mixed the moist food with bitches milk, find at the pet store, adds extra vitamens

My friends young cats only consume the gravy part of the cats food.She buys pricey food...Science diet etc.For the other cats....visiting cats etc I put out friskies....anything with a lot of gravy going is what they seem to prefer.The brown solid kinda stuff they don't go for.You may have to experiment a bit with the food.My friend got samples from pet store.At one point she had 8 different kinds of cat food available.Cats also change their minds about what food they prefer.

My "Monster" ate at 4 weeks old

Sure, as long as it is soft food.

i don't knoe mabe 6-8 weeks

Mine were both eating moist food at 3 weeks. Give them plenty of water, too!
