I just received this from a friend looking for advice:
What do you guys think?
I don't have any good advice for her except for get the kitten and maybe the mother to a vet to get checked out, and maybe keep trying the KMR with an eye dropper to help supplement the feeding in case it's not getting enough.My friend has a 3-year-old Birman female who gave birth to two kittens about two days ago. She is worried a bit because one kitten is quite small. In the first litter from this same mom-cat, two of the three kittens died for no apparent reason, so that's another reason she's concerned. She really wants both these kittens to live long healthy lives.
She got some "milk" today at Pet Food Express (after Santa had left) so she can provide supplemental feeding to the littler kitten. But she hasn't done it before. I told her YOU had (with Smudge), and that I'd provide the introduction so that you might help her on this.
What do you guys think?
