Why don't you just send her a message and suggest that she might harm the kittens from feeding them like that and ask if she could change the picture as it's misleading to other people  :shy:

I don't actually think people will trawel Ebay looking for tips on hand feeding kittens.  :innocent: But not a very experienced rearer there for sure. She'll flood kitties mouth like that, that's if she doesn't end up drowning the poor mite.  :(

Not a good image for people to see on eBay? - people might think iot must be the proper way as that is how a rescue does it  :(

I can't remember the name but I read that cats are very prone to getting liquid into their lungs. I'm sure milk could kill?

Even I have a proper kitten bottle - it has tiny, long teats and is banana shaped.

Am I wrong in thinking the kitten in the photo is being held wrong?  :scared:

I know they are doing good work but I thought that kittens could choke if held like this?
