Hello, and thank you for your question. For 12 day old kittens, they should still be on mother's milk or kitten formula. They will need to eat/be fed every 2-3 hours during the day. Here is a link that provides some detailed instructions on bottle feeding kittens: http://www.veterinarypartner.com/Content.plx?P=A&S=0&C=0&A=576 I hope this helps! Good luck with your kittens!
