Bottle feed 2 week old kittens every 2-3 hours. Ensure the formula is warm, and use a kitten-specific bottle to prevent choking. It's crucial to feed them enough but not overfeed. After feeding, gently rub their bellies to help digestion and use a warm cloth to stimulate urination and defecation as their mother would.
