Ive started weaning Tilda's babies who will be 4wks tomorrow a couple of days ago...the clue to start was that i found Bacon munching on Tilda's dry food

put a tiny bit into their mouths so they get a taste for it.

hi there i have just uploaded some pics and made an album!

just tried them with a small bit of Nature's Menu soft food on my finger and they all bit my finger off wanting more! So i think i have my answer there just a bit a day for a few days and gradually build up.

cheers claire
