Re: OT: Help - a 5 wk old kitten swallowed a tip of the nipple in thebottle..
Hi Hideyo, Keep giving your baby the formula and make sure you stimuate him to pee and poop afterward. The rubber tip is soft enough that it shouldn't scratch up his innards, so all you can do right now is help him to eliminate it. Athena, my little blind kitty did the same thing, although she was about 7 weeks old, and she was fine.

Hey Hideyo, I think of all the things a kitten could swallow, the soft rubber tip of the bottle is probably the best!I would imagine it will pass thru without much fuss; so you get to be on "Poop Patrol"! It's always something, isn't it? Love, Julie Kat [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi Hideyo,Keep giving your baby the formula and make sure you stimuate him to peeand poop afterward.
