Somehow I doubt that human breastmilk would be good for them. They do have specific animal formulae because the fat, vitamin, and salt contents vary by species.

What scares me is how you have analysed this so calmly, albeit probably accurately.

Still, it sounds a little nippy to me. Sharp Kitty Teeth!

It's a mom thang. Very little bothers me at all. Besides, baby animals that nurse are not normally born with teeth. It's once the teeth start growing in that you have a problem :) Although I am sure that the reaction from one bite is more than sufficient to make sure they never do it again. My kids never did bite me though, so who am I to talk? :)
