Subject: RE: BS: Cat with allergies!
Hi, Becca!
Thanks. I've lived with many cats, but haven't had one for a while, and it's about twenty years since I had a young kitten. He's not quite eight weeks old - had no choice of leaving him with his mum longer. My main concern is trying to get him to eat more solid food. I'm offering him wet and dry, and as he was still nursing, I've been giving him Cat Milk. He doesn't want the dry at all, and will eat minute bites of wet Iams kitten food, but will drink all the milk I'll give him. I'm worried the milk is not enough, nutrient wise, so I limit it even when he wants more, to try and get him to eat solids. He does seem perfectly healthy and active, and goes to the vet next week for needles. Any advice is welcome.
