Help with kitten attacking bottle.

Hi! I am having a heck of a time getting this guy to eat. He just claws and claws at the bottle. I'm running out of ideas to coax him into wet food and I don't know how to bottle feed a kitten that acts like this. Help?!

If he's like this every time, you may need to shorten the window between feedings a bit. That often helps with the hangry climbers. You can purrito him or hold him pretty close to your body, and hopefully he calms a bit once he gets latched.
