Colostro contains the antibodies that will help to protect against disease and the infection until their own immune systems begin to work. In approximately 48hrs, colostro is replaced by the maternal milk that while it lacks immune factors, contains all the foods and necessary appropriate calories for the optimal growth and the development. The small dogs and the kittens new born have demanding nutritional needs to support their energy levels and fast rate of growth.
