Blimey he is a bit young to be away from mum,that is if your terror is a MC....!!!!
There are different ideas on here as well about feeding but I always say what is right for you is right for him,I believe in wet food with biscuit as back up,some people do more dried & some feed raw diet {good section on here by people who have really looked into it if you decide to go that way} MC's are very fast growing to begin with & I have always added just a bit more vitamin supplement for the first six to eight months,the first MC's I had went straight onto adult food & done fine the last couple had kitten to start with but also were onto adult by 9 mnth with no problems.I think feeding our animals is a minefield nowadays,not that many years ago you didn't have all these foods for different stages & they all done equally as well then but it is also great to see that everyone wants to do their best for their animals.I am sure there will be more pop up with advice so good luck with your "terror" Dave,keep us up to speed with how you get on & pictures of him would be nice...!

Sounds as if he could be creating a storm in your household,you are going to have to be his teacher because he is at the age where he would have started learning his facts of life from mum & his siblings,mum would also have taught him some manners,biting is a no no at any age so thats a good place to start,as he is so young the vitamins that my breeder used at that age & always put in our goodie bag was nutri plus multivitamin gel,nice & tasty & normally they just lick it off of your fingers,hopefully a breeder will come on & tell you what they give their babes at that age to help give him a good start...!
