Take the cat to the vet to see of its okay first before you let it go with your other cats.
Reply:How old is the kitten? Try going to the store and getting powdered baby milk (human). I did this with a rabbit and it worked for a long time, but it was internally bleeding from a cat..... Try to keep it warm and when it has stronger teeth, try feeding it a little hard food. You had kittens before, do what the mom did as best as you can! Teach it how to live! Good luck!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Reply:Take it to the vet, it might need medical treatment. Also the vet can provide you with special kitten formula that you can feed with a bottle or eye dropper.
Reply:You could go to pet smart or some kind of pet store and get some of that milk replacement for kittens and a kitten bottle. How old is he/she? If she is old enough to walk and run around than you could probably mix some dry food/wet kitten food and the replacement milk and give that to her so she will get good nutrition she needs. Good luck and good job for taking her in! :-)





P.S if you have anymore questions email me!
Reply:if your other cats will not accept this cat, then it is best for you to care for it as it's mother. There are over the counter milk replacements you can buy, I am not sure where you live...but you can go to a feed store. A good brand is KMR. On the label it should have feeding recommendations. You can use a bottle or syringe. Most people say it's easier with a syringe. Also you will need to take a warm wash cloth and wipe it on its bottom to stimulate mothers grooming, so it can eliminate it's body waste. You will need to keep this kitty warm, and feed it every two hours at least. It is best if you can take it with you when you go somewhere. There are rumors that a hand fed kitty is the most loving and affectionate kitty ever. I have seen this and seen the opposite. Best of luck! If you can't care for it, then take it to a vet, there will likely be a vet tech or someone who will be moved to take her. Hope it all works out.
Reply:Calling a vet is free. DO IT! They will help you and tell you what needs to be done. Kittens are so delicate when little and if it's under 8 weeks it needs alot of help. Please call a local vet, this needs much more than some internet opinions. They will help you!
Reply:First and foremost.. Take her to the vet. Especially if she hasn't really eaten in a couple of days. Little kittens dehydrate SO quickly. Plus, she's at the critical age where she NEEDS lots of nutrition.





Taking her to the vet will omit any other illnesses she may have. From there, the vet should be able to guide you as to what proper food to feed her. KMR (kitten milk replacement) is formulated for kittens, and is the closest thing to the mother cat's milk you can get. DO NOT feed her baby formula!!!!! If she's a little older, there are softer / smaller foods that are good for her, and that you can mix the KMR with.





Please, take her to the vet and get her checked out- Time is critical when they are very young.





Good luck!!
