Between the animals I raise on my farm, and animals people being to me... I have a lot of experience in emergency first for "lost causes". I've used this kit to push warm fluids and or colostrum into newborns, as well as chilled babies or small animals found struggling. Watch videos on how to place a stomach tube, or ideally find someone to show you how. Always lay the tube on the animal first to see how much tube will likely be needed to reach from the mouth to the stomach. Remember that if the animal is going to die, it probably won't hurt to TRY. I'M constantly amazed at how often I've revived a cold, limp, young rabbit that's gone on to thrive. (sometime a little honey and ACV seems to give a bump to a struggling youngster that needs a warm up and fluids) NOT MEDICAL ADVICE JUST OBSERVATIONS FROM A FARMER Read more
I used this kit to feed a newborn hoglet after the mother stopped nursing, and it truly helped save its life. The variety of syringes, bottles, and nipples made it easy to find the right size for gentle and safe feeding. The materials are soft and easy to clean, and the small tips work perfectly for tiny animals like hedgehogs. Everything felt well-made and reliable, which gave me confidence during a stressful time. Highly recommended for anyone caring for baby animals—especially those that need extra help feeding. Read more
This came late so I had to go to Pet Smart to get a bottle ( cost like $7, just for the bottle) . Once I got this delivery I quickly noticed that this bottle and nipples are far supeior that the one I could get a Pet Smart. Also now I have all the other items that came with the bottle for the next time when my cat wants to gift me a baby Squirrel. The cost was also much better that Pet Smart. Read more

Edit: I did edit from 2 to 4 stars. For a couple reasons. Firstly we were feeding 7 wild bunnies and their teeth are sharp and they immediately bit the tips off. They did so with other brands and, several different nipples, including ones for infants. The other accessories were helpful. I could see how for baby kitties and puppies this would be really helpful. They also get a star for customer service reaching out for more details, pics of the damage and, if they could do anything. So, after thinking about it I felt it was not the brand or any issue that they could do anything about. Even thicker plastic, rubber or silicon wouldn't of made a difference. We found 7 bunnies that were abandoned and less than a week old. These would of been good but at 4 weeks they bit the tips off immediately. If they were made with something other than thin silicon this kit would of been great. We did have to continue to bottle feed them for 8 weeks. We did find something thicker that worked. FYI: we did keep them all alive. We let them go at 5 months but they do not leave the yard. Read more
With the help of this feeding kit, I was able to save the lives for two litters of kittens that my cat had due to not being able to feed them herself. I will definitely purchase again in the future if the need arises. Read more
Good but for the price. I've used several items from it already. Reasonable price Read more
If you raise puppies or kittens, these are a must have. I run a small private kitten rescue and this kit has already saved 3 who needed to be tube feed or syringe feed. Syringes are big enough for babies without needing to refill or have a bunch leftover. The suction bulb helps clear stuffy noses and clear anything leftover from birth. The nipples are fashioned after the "popular brand" and work just as well. As I deal with babies, the pill shooter has not been used. But seems to be of good quality and plan on keeping it just in case one of my personal cats or dogs needs to take medicine in pill form. Read more
