The kittens are now 4 weeks old. The two girls eat solid food just fine. I'm feeding them Advantage kitten wet food with some small pieces of dry kitten food mixed in. I put a plate in their playpen and they come right to it and eat. The boy kitten just walks around them trying to get them to play. He hits them on their butts and tries to wrestle with them while they eat. I've tried to get him to eat but he wont. He thinks it's still playtime.
After the girls are finished, I try to put a little more on the plate to see if he will eat after they are done and he wont. He waits until mom comes in and then nurses from her. And even she pushes him away after a bit. And he cries for more. Any suggestions as to what I should do? Any tricks that may work to get him to at least try solid food?
The amazing thing is, he's already litter trained. The girls are still having accidents or miss the litter pan. But he learned that quickly.
