Wombaroo Kitten Milk Replacement 215gm

A milk substitute for kittens — orphans, large litters, or when the queen's milk isn't keeping up.

Formulated to match queen's milk rather than being a general-purpose pet milk, with elevated taurine. Taurine is essential for vision, heart and brain development in cats, and it's the thing most improvised substitutes get wrong.

Typical analysis

• Protein 43%, fat 27%, ash 5%, moisture 4%

Mixing

Make a paste first, then add the rest, and don't overheat it or it curdles. Keeps 24 hours in the fridge, two weeks frozen.

Feeding

Warm to about 35°C and feed from a bottle.

Every 2 hours for the first 3 days, 4-hourly by the end of week one, 6-hourly by week two. Start weaning onto softened kitten food around 4 weeks, fully weaned by 8.
