Wombaroo Cat Milk Replacer is a milk substitute for kittens of all breeds — orphans, rejected kittens, and litters where the queen's milk is limited. It is formulated to match the composition of queen's milk, and the analysis reflects how protein-rich that is: 43% protein, the highest of any milk replacer in the Wombaroo range, with 27% fat and 21 MJ/kg. Whey protein is included for growth rate, and taurine is elevated, which Wombaroo lists as essential for vision, heart and brain development. One level 6.5g scoop makes 30 millilitres of milk; 215g makes a litre. PeekAPaw stocks 215g, 1kg and 5kg, the larger packs suiting foster carers and rescue groups. Very young kittens need warmth and regular weighing as much as they need milk — a vet or an experienced fosterer is worth a call in the first days.

Making Up Milk
To make 30mL of milk: Mix 1 level scoop (6.5g) of powder with 25mL of warm water.
To make 1 litre of milk: Mix 215g of powder with 850mL of warm water.
Add about half the water to the powder first and mix to a paste. Then add the remaining water and mix thoroughly. Pre-boil the water to ensure it is sterilised. If the water is too hot it can cause the milk to curdle. If it is too cold then it will be difficult to disperse the powder. An electric whisk can be used for mixing larger quantities. Milk can be stored in the fridge for up to a day or can be frozen for up to 2 weeks. It is useful to make up larger quantities and store it frozen in small portions (e.g. ice cube trays), so that the required daily feed volumes can be easily thawed out. Once thawed out, discard any unused milk, and wash feeding utensils thoroughly.
