I have a Persian kitten. I found a litter of stray puppies and decided to take them home for fostering. Will that puppies cause any problems to my Persian kitten. Can I feed the puppies me-o Persian kitten food. Pet's info: Cat | Persian | Female | unspayed

Hi. You just need to keep them separate until the puppies are examined and cleared to be healthy. Also get fecal samples checked for parasites. I would NOT feed kitten food to the puppies. They need a high quality puppy food, or milk replacer if under 4 weeks. Kitten food is not balanced well for dogs. Especially growing puppies.
