Thank you for submitting your question regarding Goldie. At 4 weeks of age, the kittens can start eating kitten food. You can offer wet food or dry kibble softened with warm water. This can supplement their nursing. Goldie will need to see her veterinarian if her nupple does not heal soon. I hope this information helps!
