I’m giving the next suggestions based on the data that the kittens are iv weeks of age. At iv weeks of age, woman nurture cats start out to innovate dead prey to their kittens, every bit they’ve developed pocket-size teeth together with their digestive systems are developed plenty to grip this form of food. Mom cats by together with large permit kittens at this historic menses to tumble out nursing for a calendar week or so, only the weaning procedure starts at iv weeks. So introducing canned kitten or adult truthful cat nutrient (unsure if this would hold upwards available where your friend is living inward Uganda?) would hold upwards appropriate, every bit good every bit dry out kitten nutrient soaked inward H2O until soft, amongst supplemental feedings of homemade kitten milk replacement (none of the homemade kitten milk replacements are nutritionally consummate for long-term feeding, unfortunately).
Cats create non conduct maintain the enzyme to digest cow’s milk, together with thus feeding this would crusade digestive upset, diarrhea, together with possible dehydration. Goat’s milk is preferable to cow’s milk, only the best thing, until the kittens are reliably eating canned truthful cat food, would hold upwards KMR (Kitten Milk Replacer). KMR together with bottle-feeding supplies are available online from Amazon together with other sources, together with the pulverization would hold upwards the best bet, every bit it does non take away refrigeration until it is opened. I don’t know if your friend would hold upwards able to conduct maintain KMR shipped to her, only if together with thus that would hold upwards an selection for supplemental feeding until the kittens hit 5 weeks of age.
Keeping kittens warm is crucial to their survival, every bit their petty bodies are non able to regulate temperature well. At iv weeks one-time they are yet developing this ability. Monitoring nutrient intake together with elimination is likewise really important, only at iv weeks of historic menses the kittens should hold upwards able to pee together with poop on their own. Kittens vocalize when they are hungry, together with should hold upwards fed every fourth dimension they vocalize.
