General recommendations

  • Always boil water before reconstituting the Wild CatGro. Allow cooling time
  • Reconstituted Wild CatGro should be fed at 38-39°C (body temperature). Use a thermometer
  • Do not microwave. Warm bottle in a hot water bath
  • Clean ALL feeding utensils and equipment after each feeding: rinse in lukewarm water, wash with a detergent in hot (80°C) water, rinse with clean water (ideally a weak bleach solution) and dry thoroughly with a ‘clean’ towel
  • Reconstituted Wild CatGro may be refrigerated up to 24 hours
  • Discard any unused portion after 24 hours
  • Observe stool consistency to monitor concentration of milk being fed
  • If stools become too firm consult your veterinarian or nutritionist for advice
  • Monitor weight regularly to guarantee that they are consuming enough Wild Cat-Gro
  • If cats are not gaining enough weight consult your veterinarian
  • If cubs are crying excessively, they may not be getting enough to eat or they may be too cold
  • Cubs need assistance to help urinate and defecate for the first 2 weeks of life after each feeding. You need to assist by using a warm moist cotton ball and massaging the cub’s abdomen and anal area until they urinate and or defecate
  • You must be persistent, this is very important to the kittens well being
  • Consult your veterinarian for any signs of disease, fever, parasites, or irregulars
  • Fresh, clean water should be available at all times, starting at 3 weeks of age
