Hello! We have had our kitten for about 24 hours now and he has not eaten anything. The breeder also said she was having trouble getting him to eat. He is doing good, very active at times, and then takes some short naps. I have tried feeding him wet food 3 times today. Im not sure if the flavor or brand of food could be something he dislikes but we currently have Royal Canin Kitten food from the can that says "Loaf in Sauce." First we tried just putting it on a normal small plate/dish, then we tried heating it up slightly so that it was warm, and lastly we tried to mix a small amount of water in is so that is was more of a liquid paste. I even tried to get him to eat from my hand or finger but he wouldn't go for it. I did manage to get a small amount in his mouth but he just kind of chewed and most of it fell out. We will point to the food, he will come over smell it, and then back away. I did put a little bit of the mixture in a small syringe and fed him a tiny amount as I didn't want him to get to hungry before I could bring him to the vet. I read that syringe feeding was okay if your kitten wouldn't eat but I also don't want him to rely on it so Im hoping it was just a one time thing.I have read that 8 weeks can be a little soon when it comes to being weaned off of milk so I could try kitten formula but I also have read that kittens should be able to eat wet food or even dry food at that age but I guess it just depends on the kitten. Any suggestions? Thank you.
