Pet's info: Cat | Mixed Breed | Male | unneutered
I'm getting a 6 week old kitten from a co worker. I know this is a vary young age for them to leave mom. Sadly her landlord is not understanding and wants the kittens gone asap. She says they are weaned already. My question is should I give him milk replacement, or just mix it in with his food. And for how long since he is so young.

If the kitten is weaned and eating jitten food then you no longer have to worry about milk. You might have to soften dry food with water or with canned kitten food if needed also. If the kitten is not eating good meals then you will have to supplement with kitten milk until he is able to get good meals with dry or canned food
