Concept for Life Milk for Newborns is a complete replacement for mother’s milk and provides your little kitten with all the nutrients it needs: Colostrum: A balanced mix of colostrum, L-lysine as well as vitamins and an antioxidant complex (vitamin C, vitamin E, selenium, zinc), helps to support the body’s natural defences. During the first weeks of life kittens are protected by antibodies that they absorb through their mother’s milk (colostrum). This concentration of antibodies gradually decreases even though their immune systems are not yet fully developed and this milk can help bridge the so-called immunological gap Very digestible: A young kitten’s digestive system is not yet fully developed. Prebiotic inulin and highly digestible proteins support the development of an optimal digestive system DHA: The rearing milk is rich in the omega 3 fatty acid DHA (docosahexaenoic acid). DHA helps to support the development of healthy brain function in kittens Taurine: Helps to support healthy development of eyesight and cardiac function No added sugar, soya, artificial preservatives or colour Handy Starter Set: Contains3 pouches of milk powder, 1 drinking bottle with leak protection, 2 teats, 1 measuring spoon.

Common questions
How often should I feed my kitten?
Kittens have small stomachs and need several meals a day, usually three or four when they first come home, moving to fewer, larger meals as they grow. Follow the daily amount on the pack and divide it between the meals.
Can kittens drink milk?
Once weaned, kittens do not need milk, and cow’s milk often causes diarrhoea because many cats cannot digest lactose well. Water is all they need to drink. A lactose-reduced cat milk can be given as an occasional treat.
