Product Details

Catac Nursing Replacement Nipples 3 Pack

Provide safe, gentle hand rearing for orphan puppies, kittens, and small wildlife with Catac Nursing Replacement Nipples. Specially engineered to fit compatible foster feeding bottles, these natural latex rubber teats feature a hand formed, flexible design that closely mimics the warmth, texture, and flexibility of a mother animal's natural teat. Their pliable structure encourages proper suckling reflexes and facial muscle development, ensuring vulnerable neonates receive necessary nutritional intake during critical growth stages.

Features and Benefits

  • Natural Latex Construction: Molded from soft, flexible natural latex rubber that feels natural in young animal mouths to promote rapid acceptance during bottle feeding sessions.
  • Customizable Liquid Flow: Supplied without pre-drilled openings, allowing foster caregivers to puncture or trim the tip to establish the exact flow rate needed for specific species or age groups.
  • Simulates Natural Nursing: Soft texture and anatomical shape encourage healthy latching, natural swallowing, and proper saliva production essential for infant digestive processing.
  • Multi Specie Compatibility: Ideal for hand rearing orphaned or rejected puppies, kittens, squirrels, rabbits, and other small infant mammal species.
  • Convenient 3 Pack Quantity: Includes three identical replacement teats to ensure continuous sanitary rotations and reliable replacements throughout the nursing phase.

Safety and Handling Notes

Caution: Examine each nipple carefully before every feeding session. Natural latex rubber can degrade over time or develop wear from sharp emerging teeth. Immediately discard and replace any nipple showing tears, cracks, sticky surface changes, or swelling.

Always verify fluid flow rate with plain water before administering formula to prevent aspiration into the animal's lungs. Never leave infant animals unattended during bottle feeding.

Sanitation Requirements: Wash thoroughly in hot soapy water immediately after each use. Sterilize regularly by boiling in water or using veterinary approved cold water sterilizing solutions prior to reuse.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I create a hole in these nursing nipples? −
To make an aperture for newborn animals, heat a fine sewing needle and pierce the tip of the rubber teat. For larger animals requiring a faster flow rate, carefully snip a microscopic cross cut or small piece off the tip using clean scissors.
Will these nipples fit on standard syringes or other bottle brands? −
Catac nursing nipples are specifically designed to fit over the neck of compatible Catac foster feeding bottles. They do not fit standard luer lock or slip tip medical syringes without specialized adaptors.
How do I know if the formula flow rate is correct? −
Invert the bottle filled with fluid. Ideal flow allows formula to drip slowly, about one drop every few seconds, without squeezing. If fluid pours rapidly, the hole is too large and presents an aspiration risk.
How should I clean and store natural latex nipples? −
Wash immediately after feeding with warm water and mild soap to remove fat residues. Air dry thoroughly and store in a cool, dark place away from direct sunlight and heat sources, which degrade natural latex over time.
Usage Guidelines & Instructions +
1. Opening Customization Sterilize the new latex nipple. Prepare the tip opening by piercing with a sterile heated needle for very small infants or trimming a tiny portion of the tip with sharp sterile scissors for older offspring.
2. Bottle Assembly and Testing Fit the latex base securely over the bottle neck. Fill with warm formula and invert the bottle to verify that fluid drips slowly under light pressure, ensuring safe liquid delivery.
3. Safe Nursing Position Position the infant animal resting on its stomach in a natural horizontal posture. Guide the latex tip into the mouth to trigger suckling. Never feed an infant animal flat on its back.
How It Works +

These replacement nipples operate via positive oral compression and vacuum suction created by the nursing infant animal.

When the neonate compresses the soft latex bulb against its palate, formula flows through the custom opening. As the animal releases pressure, the resilient natural rubber snaps back into shape, pulling liquid forward without collapsing the tip structure.

Professional Quality Standards +

Manufactured according to trusted European pet care specifications, offering optimal physical safety and functional dependability for delicate newborn animals.

Natural Rubber Latex Crafted from natural rubber latex to provide gentle flexibility that prevents oral tissue irritation in young animals.
Precision Molding Uniform wall thickness prevents premature collapse while maintaining optimal elasticity during active suckling.
Sterilization Compatible Formulated to withstand routine thermal boiling and chemical sterilizing routines required for young animal health.
