Could anyone tell me please what age kittens start to lap for themselves? Thank you.

bout 3-4 weeks with mine!

I think that it depends on the kittens- the litter that I've got at the moment had flu really badly for a couple of weeks and are behind with everything so they're only just getting the idea at 5 weeks.

3-5 weeks - ours were about 4 weeks and picked it up straight away, first time, but sometimes you have to help and guide them in the right direction
