Ok, I just got 2 3day old kittens from a woman whose mama cat had pretty much abandoned the kittens. There were 4 and 2 died because of mama's neglect. So, now I have them and am caring for them.
I got them home about 45 minutes ago and prepared the first bottle. I got a PatAg bottle and cut a small "x" in the end and cleaned everything with boiling hot water. I then prepare the formula the tried to give it to the kittens. One of them tried to suck it, but it is so tiny and the nipple is so hard that it couldn't get any formula.
Well, I tried feeding them with a syringe, but I'm scared that I might give it to them to fast and "drown" them or something.
Can someone please tell me what to do.
Also, one weighs 2 ounces and the other weighs 2.4. Aren't the supposed to weigh a lot more then that?
