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.
Kittens less than 2 weeks of age should be fed every 3â4 hours, while kittens of 2â4 weeks of age can usually be fed every 6â8 hours. The milk should be warmed to 95â100 Â°F (35.0â37.8 Â°C) before feeding (about the same temperature as the skin of the human forearm). Check the warmth of the milk on back of your hand.
