They do. Every animal needs access to water. You could offer them kitten replacement milk when they're small, but they should also have access to water at all times.

There are so many commercially-made pet foods out there. It's hard to go wrong these days. If you go to the pet store, the main thing is to get kitten food until they're around six months. Beyond six months, they'll eat adult food. At about seven or eight years, they'll get a senior diet. If there are any medical issues, then your vet might recommend prescription food. The brand that I like is this one here called Rawz Canned. Also, Hills is excellent. And there are several store-bought diets that are not bad either.

Typically, a kitten would start to eat solid food at about six weeks and be fully weaned by nine weeks.

You typically take kittens, and you would just pop the bottle in the mouth, just like you're feeding a baby. And if they're hungry, they'll drink.

Most breeders will not give you a cat before about nine weeks of age. By about six weeks, they can start on solids. And by eight to nine weeks, they'll be perfectly fine without any milk. So it takes about eight or nine weeks for a kitten to wean from their mother.

The small ones need to bottle-feed if their mom isn’t able to nurse them. If they can't eat solid food, then they need to get their nutrition from milk. If they are already eating solid food, there's no reason that they would need to have milk. By about nine weeks, kittens generally don't need milk.

Not necessarily. So, perhaps if people haven't seen... The first thing, very quickly, I want to touch on diagnostic imaging means to me, ultrasonography, radiology, or x-rays, CT scan, MRI, those kind of things, those are imaging type studies. Other lab work might be blood work, CBC chemistry, coagulation panels, that kind of thing. So with that background being said, does your dog need to have lab work before diagnostic imaging is done? And the answer is no. It purely depends on what we are trying to diagnose by doing these studies. So, for example, if an animal comes in with a limp and we're doing x-rays because that's one of the more common things we do, to see if there's a fracture and obviously I don't need to run a blood work and look at the dog's liver and kidney function if I'm worried about if there's a fracture there or not. So, I think that's a prime example of when lab work would not be required. There's multiple others, but I won't go into all of them because there's too many scenarios, but simply put, no, they do not require lab work necessarily before imaging can be done.
