Verbal irony is when what is said is the opposite of the literal meaning. One type of verbal irony is sarcasm, where the speaker says the opposite of what he or she means in order to show contempt or mock. Other types of verbal irony include overstatement (or exaggeration) and understatement.
Thanks for A2A. There are two excellent, well-informed answers here, so I'll just try to simplify. Dr. Falconer is of course correct; pre-weaning age (about 9 weeks or younger) kittens can drink cow's milk, or any milk. Neonates are not lactose intolerant; this develops gradually with age.
Kitten Food. Your four-week-old kittens can eat dry food but it may be tough at first; make the transition easier by mixing it with kitten milk replacer. Buy this milk replacer at pet and farm supply stores and some grocery stores. Donât use the cowâs milk you drink or youâll likely end up with sick kittens on your hands.
