You may be able to give the formula in a bowl now - just see if the little guy can lap it up yet. I had my group eating on their own (kitten kibble) by 4 weeks. I did mix kibble and formula and turn them loose (in the tub!) a few times. What fun!

all i ever had to do was take them one time to the litter box, take their little paws and scratch the litter and that was all it has taken for my fur babies. wish my dog could use the litter box. he has tried. funny to watch.

What a darling little thing!! As far as training, every so often just put him in the litter box. It is amazing how quickly they figure it out!! My little Bitzy was so-o-o-o tiny when I first got her that I used a small box and removed the nasties with a plastic teaspoon!! It had sides short enough that she could get in and out on her own. The most difficult thing I had to deal with was keeping her big sister out of the box!!! There was only one time that Bitzy didn't quite make it to her box. Having Peej will also make the training much easier because Milo will imitate what he does. Enjoy your new little furbaby!!! Be sure to post pics on a regular basis so we can watch him grow!! :thumbup:
