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.
Custom Search. When the kittens are between 3 and 4 weeks of age, it is time to begin the process of weaning them. It is time to teach the kittens to eat from a dish. I often begin by offering milk replacer (do NOT give cow's milk to kittens) in a VERY shallow dish.y the time the kittens are 6-8 weeks of age, they should be very able to eat straight canned kitten food. When that time comes, I strongly recommend that you purchase a good brand of kitten food and I recommend you feed only canned.
