TLDR at the bottom
I took in my little Eve in nearly 4 weeks ago, she should be around 6 to 7 weeks old now. I took her in from work (I work at a vets office) because she had pneumonia and euthanasia was being discussed. She's doing fabulous! Gaining weight and eating like a champion.
Today I took in one of her litter mates to give her a playmate her own size and age appropriate.
Amy is in good health too, but she loves the bottle. The Foster mom told me she doesn't want to eat solids at all.
I researched much already and also read every info the kittenlady has to offer, I even got her book!
So what would be the best approach to wean her? I get the whole mixing milk and a tiny bit of wet food, but does anyone have other tips?
TLDR:
6-7 Week old orphan kitten, is a bottle only baby, doesn't want wet food, how to best transition her?
Thanks in advance!
