Product description
Nutritious rearing milk, suitable for young kittens from birth to 2 months. The DHA-rich milk powder can be used to replace mother's milk. With colostrum to help strengthen the body's natural defences.
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
Contains3 pouches of milk powder, 1 drinking bottle with leak protection, 2 teats, 1 measuring spoon.

How to prepare and feed Concept for Life Milk for Newborns
- Wash the drinking bottle, leak protector and teat, then sterilise in boiling water before each use,
- Boil the water, then let it cool (30–40°C, lukewarm)
- Use the measuring spoon to pour water into the bottle, then add the milk powder (use scale on bottle for larger quantities)
- Seal the bottle with the leak protector and shake until the powder has completely dissolved
- Remove the leak protector
- Test the temperature of the milk on the inside of your wrist. It should only feel lukewarm
- Up to the age of 4 weeks, it is important to massage your kitten's belly with a moist, warm cloth after each feed. A mother cat often licks her kittens' bellies for hours to stimulate digestion and excretion of urine and faeces

Don't waste your money
Poor quality, I have 5 cat/kittens, but all of them just turned their heads from the bowl, they even don't want to try. Strong aroma added to this milk, and milk powder can't dissolve properly. Simply, don't waste your money on this, definitely there is so many better options...
