Feeding, and litterbox training?? ?

Question

Im currently taking care of a kitten that is around 2 1/2 weeks, the mother either ran away or died, how long does it need to be bottlefed and when should I start feeding it food? and for teaching it to use the litterbox when and how?

Answer 1

for how to use a litter box. when we got a kitten all we did was just kept putting it in the litter bow (it doesn't matter if they walk out) then just keep doing that and they will get used to it. and they will know to go in there.  

Answer 2

You should keep bottle feeding her for about 6 more weeks.  Dont' start feeding it food until it is about 8 weeks old.  Start litter box training it as soon as possible. there really is no age limit for that.  hopefully your new kitten will learn to live without its mom. Good luck (:

Answer 3

talk to some one at a shelter to see about getting this kitten into foster care

Answer 4

usually kittens need to be bottle fed for awhile, but it depends on their health condition. usually, kittens should be bottle fed for six to eight weeks, but start feeding it real food at the eight or nine week point. the litter box is best taught as early as possible. i would suggest that you  just pick the cat up when it is making a mess on the floor and move it to the litter box. eventually it will learn. once it starts learning, give it small treats or praise it if it does well. as it gets older, once it learns, if it ever goes out of the box, spray it with a squirt gun
