Kittens are usually old enough to start eating solid foods when they're around 3 or 4 weeks in age, according to veterinarian J. Veronika Kiklevich of CatChannel.com. They're usually read to eat solid foods exclusively when they're between 6 and 7 weeks old. By then there is no need for them to nurse with mom.
As the kitten gets accustomed to eating, gradually decrease the amount of milk replacer you add, while slowly increasing the amount of kitten food. By five to six weeks, he should be eating only lightly moistened food. Now you can start to leave out small amounts of dry food and fresh water at all times. By eight to 10 weeks, kittens should be accustomed to eating unmoistened kitten food.
