yea, once the kitten is weaned, feeding becomes your responsibility and you shouldn’t overfeed it.
but when it’s the mother… honestly i don’t think it’s a health risk for the kitten for it to be a bit plump during the first few weeks of its life. i’m not a veterinarian tho, so if i’m wrong feel free to correct me
Ok.
Doesn’t change that the health of an animal kept as a pet, is the responsibility of the respective human.
Edit: are you downvoters assuming I’m suggesting you separate the kitten and mother? I’m not.
Kittens and mother cats should go essentially untouched by humans for several weeks after birth.
After that, just don’t continue to allow the kitten to overeat and it’ll be fine.
I dont think its ever a good idea to restrict a pet animal babys access to its mothers milk without advice from a vet
That’s… Not what I’m saying. What the fuck?
The kitten doesn’t need to stay fat. That’s all.
If a pet is getting its food from you, it’s on you to give it the right amount.
The same applies to asking a vet for advice, if you don’t know.
Bottom line: The health of a pet (or any animal in human care) is the responsibility of the respective human.
My second comment initially made ABSOLUTELY NO STATEMENT beyond that fact, or what it means in practice.

No, I’m suggesting you can’t read.
A downvote doesn’t suggest anything at all.
This comment does.
…what pet, exactly? The post very clearly says “at work”?
Well yeah.
The post is about kittens.
I’m talking about pets in general, and how they don’t decide stuff like this.
