bottle-feeders

Non-nursing infant feeders

Bottle-feeders are people who feed infants or young animals with a bottle rather than through nursing.

The term applies to parents who use formula or expressed milk, or to those who hand-raise orphaned animals: The sanctuary relies on volunteer bottle-feeders for the baby goats.

It can also refer to the bottles themselves.
