Features of nutrition of kittens
Kittens grow rapidly and require food with a high protein content (at least 30-40%), taurine, DHA for brain and vision development, and calcium for bones. Up to 4 weeks - only mother's milk or a substitute. From 4 weeks - gradual introduction of soaked dry food or wet canned food. By 8-10 weeks, the kitten completely switches to solid food.
