When is a kitten weened?

Kittens are typically weaned between 4 and 8 weeks of age. This process usually starts around 4 weeks when they begin to eat solid food alongside their mother's milk.

Here's a breakdown:

* 4 weeks: Kittens begin experimenting with solid food.

* 6-8 weeks: Kittens are fully weaned and no longer rely on their mother's milk.

Important note: The weaning process can vary depending on factors such as:

* Number of kittens: Larger litters may need to wean earlier.

* Mother cat's health: A healthy mother cat will be able to produce enough milk for her kittens for longer.

* Kitten's health: Weak or sick kittens may need to wean later.

It's best to consult with a veterinarian for guidance on your kitten's individual needs.
