So I woke up this morning and Zoey had seven babies. All but one seem healthy and are eating. What should I do about the one that is not nursing?

Try to get that little one to latch on to a nipple. If that doesn't work, you could try feeding kitten formula with a small plastic syringe (keep kitty right side up).

Although, it is quite likely that the little one might not make it.

I don't have a whole lot of knowledge on feeding kittens, but maybe doing a search of the forums will pull up some older threads that deal with the subject.

Good luck.
