Offer it to them at about 3-4 weeks, make sure it is sloppy kitten food, they are more mobile then and using more energy, they’ll love it.

Can start supplementing mom’s milk when kittens are around 4 or 5 weeks old. First mix kitten milk or evaporated milk mixed with water and rice baby cereal. When they get used to sucking and licking this mixture can add a small amount of canned food to it. You could also soak dry kitten chow in the milk until it is soft and give that to them. Instead of slowly adding the can stuff just add the dry. Don’t expect them to eat completely dry food until they’re teeth get bigger. During the start of the feeding transition the kitts will still be going to mom for alot of their food. I have raised many litters of kittens with this method and have always had nice healthy kittens. Don’t forget to have a litter pan, small with low sides very near them so they can learn from mommy how to use this. They start this soon as they are getting aroung good. Enjoy! Also, this will take awhile, don’t expect it to happen overnight. Do it slowly and kitts will look forward to it.

Not until they are weaned from momma. Offer kitten food at about 5 weeks.
