Knowing when to wean kittens benefits the kittens as well as the mother cat. As kittens grow, they require more nutrition. The mother cat will benefit because her body will no longer need to produce as much milk. Kittens will naturally begin the weaning process when they are four to five weeks old. During weaning, kittens still benefit from continued access to their motherâs milk and should have free access to it when possible.
