No. Kitty was weaned by her mother between 5-8 weeks of age. She no longer needs milk and it could even upset her stomach. Make sure you are feeding a balanced, commercial kitten food and this will include all the calcium she needs. I hope this helps and please feel free to post any additional questions.
