Tips for introducing dry food to 7 week old kittens
I have two 7ish week old fosters. I've had them since they were about 3 weeks old.
We made it through syringe feeding and are now eating wet food, but darn it if these two will not so much as sample dry food. I've tried 3 different brands - Science Diet Kitten, Nulo, and Purina One Kitten. No dice.
One of them still won't even bite/chew at wet food. She will only suckle it or lick it. She's currently getting fed Sheba kitten wet food, since it's so soft and smooth. But I'd love to be able to get her on the same food as everyone else someday, lol.
Any tips for introducing kibble to kittens who don't seem to understand the crunch? There's no rush or anything, and I understand that kittens very much have their own timelines. I've just never had kittens that got to 7 weeks old without interest in kibble, so I'm wondering if I need to assist them somehow.
