DIET

Fresh, water must always be available.

Do not give cow’s milk as this may cause diarrhoea.

Your kitten has been brought up on a diet of Boiled /roast chicken, Encore which is very similar applaws, almo chicken, whiskas / felix /Sainsbury’s Kitten/ Hilife/Asda Tiger kitten pouches/cat food. We also have dry food down at all times, they are used to James Wellbeloved, Royal Canin and Hills.

Avoid liver/heart/kidney based foods as these may cause upset tummies in a small kitten. Other tinned foods may be tried but only in small amounts until you are sure they agree with your kitten. As a kitten’s stomach is delicate, please keep to the foods recommended for a week or so to prevent an upset tummy.  It is also important not to introduce any new foods during this time.

In case of diarrhea please feed boiled fresh meat, e.g. chicken with plain boiled rice. If the problem doesn’t clear within 24 hours, please seek veterinary advice.

If you change your kitten’s diet, please do so gradually over a period of time.  This will help your kitten’s stomach to adjust to its new diet.  Use a low-sided dish for your kitten’s food and always feed your kitten in the same place so that he/she will know where to feed.  Food should always be fed at room temperature, your kitten is used to at least 4 meals per day from now until 5 months of age, 3 meals  from  around 5 to 6 months, then  2 meals from 6 months  onwards.

Your kitten has been wormed using “panacur” liquid (obtainable only from your vet).

We recommend you use Stronghold Spot on treatment for fleas, ticks, ear mites & worms

   also spray bedding, carpets, etc.[but on alternate occasions – not together at the same time]

This product is excellent but also only available through a vet. Use as directed.
