They might be a tad too young to eat like a big kitty, but if you’re getting food down them with your slurry and a syringe, that’s a great start!!

Probably some manner of kitten formula would be better for another couple of weeks, but right now, you’re getting food in them, and I applaud your efforts!!

(I’m not a professional anything, of course!!)

Hang tough, and thank you for looking after these little wild thangs!!!

At their age, they're so used to mom's teat, they'd probably reject a larger, harder rubber nipple. Karadeniz May 2022 #14
