Directions for Mixing Veta-Lac Feline:
Add three level measures of Veta-Lac Feline powder to 4
fluid ounces (1/2 cup) of very warm water and shake or stir vigorously. This
mixture may be stored in a covered container under refrigeration for several
days. Emulsification of fats is improved by refrigeration and only brief mixing
is needed just before feeding. If a smaller amount of reconstituted liquid is
required, mix one measure of medium to firmly packed Veta-Lac Feline powder with
three measures of very warm water as described above. This product is intended
for intermittent or supplemental feeding only.
Directions for mixing Veta-Lac Feline:
Your veterinarian should be consulted for advice about
the care and feeding of kittens. Feed young kittens whenever they are hungry but
avoid overfeeding. Feed from a dropper or small nipple bottle. Experience will
soon tell you how much and how often to feed. Veta-Lac Feline may be fed either
at body temperature or refrigerator temperature, but avoid sudden changes or
wide variations in temperature. Strong newborn kittens should normally be fed
six times during each
24 hours (weak or very small animals should be fed every two hours) for the
first few days. The number of feedings may be reduced to four times every 24
hours during the second week. By the third or fourth week, feeding three times
per day is usually sufficient. Kittens should be eating from a bowl and a small
amount of dry meal can be added to the liquid to make a gruel-like mixture.
Gradually decrease the amount of liquid being fed and increase the amount of
regular ration. This change from all liquid feeding to the regular ration should
be made in not less than two to three weeks.
Feeding Veta-Lac Feline to Orphan Kittens:
For best results, continue to feed small or supplemental
amounts of reconstituted liquid after weaning.
