Product Information

PetLac® provides complete nutrition for proper growth and development.

Shake gently. Refrigerate after opening.

Directions for Feeding: If possible all kittens should receive mcolostrum by nursing on their mother for the first several days. Weighing kittens at the beginning and every 3 days will help to determine the amount that should be fed. Bottle fed kittens should be fed 1 teaspoon (5mL) per 4 ounces (115g) of body weight every 3-4 hours. Feeding amounts and frequency vary according to individual needs. Smaller and weaker kittens may need increased feeding frequency. As kittens become older the feeding frequency may be decreased and the amount per feeding increased. At 4 to 6 weeks you may begin offering PetLac Kitten in a shallow bowl for the kittens to lap. Do not discontinue bottle feeding until the kittens are eating well on their own. During the 6th week mix PetLac Kitten with KMR® 2nd Step™ to allow the kitten to gradually switch to solid food. Weaned kittens: Feed 1 tablespoon (15mL) per 5 lbs. (2.2kg) of body weight daily mixed in regular food. Pregnant and lactating females: Feed 2 tablespoons (30mL) per 5 lbs. (2.2kg) of body weight daily mixed in regular food. Consult your veterinarian for additional advice.

Storage: Discard unused formula after 14 days. Do not freeze in original container. May be frozen in single serving size containers.

A Common Question

Do your milk replacer powders need to be refrigerated?

Yes, all kitten and puppy milk replacers must be refrigerated after opening. Esbilac® and KMR® powders are milk-based and contain fat, therefore have the potential to spoil under certain conditions. They can also experience bacterial growth when stored improperly. The can of powder has to be kept in the refrigerator or freezer after it has been opened. The powders will keep in the refrigerator for up to 3 months, or in the freezer for up to 6 months.
