Question
Hi we have three baby wild mice we are trying to feed think its going ok but i am unsure on the dilution of the powdered kitten formula we are using. should we make it up exactly as it says on the tin for kittens and just feed the mice the 0.2cc that they need or should we be diluting it more water ? any advice would be grateful

Answer
Dear Valerie,

Use the kitten milk watered down by half, and give them as much as they will take. Once they refuse, wait five minutes and try again. They need as much nutrition as possible.

Best of luck with the little pups!

squeaks,

Natasha
