    3 days old kitten not nursing, please help..

    The vet wasn’t willing to use any sort of epilepsy medication because of her small size. i feel like i’m annoying everyone i know cause i keep talking about this, so i’m here.

    I had to study for tonight and passed her over to my mom to feed, it weighed 76 grams on Wednesday, and now mom tells me it weighs 107. Should I be concerned? We’re doing as the vet suggested and feeding it 3-5ml of formula every 2-3 hours. 🤔

    3 days old kitten not nursing, please help..

    Thanks a lot for the feedback! I just tried it with a syringe and while the kitten still doesn’t /want/ the milk, it swallows it once i carefully drip it in. I’m slightly more optimistic. Feeding it safely takes a long time but it’s worth it if it just starts growing and takes some of this...

    3 days old kitten not nursing, please help..

    My sister’s cat gave birth three days ago and one of the kittens is way smaller than the other two.. It’s not eating and no matter how we try to urge it, it refuses to suckle any nip. We’re trying bottle feeding with formula and even this is a difficult process, getting it to suck voluntarily is...
