I visited my sister's farm and brought back home a 5-week old female kitten, b/c her mom and littermates had all been killed by a raccoon living somewhere near the farm.
I have been feeding the kitten milk replacement for puppy, (but will soon get kitten milk once that becomes available), and wet food, but no water. Is there anything else I need to feed to the kitten to make sure she's healthy?
I already have a male adult cat at home. At first meeting, he seen interested in the new kitten and followed her all over the house. He didn't growl or hiss at the kitten, but sometimes would swipe his paw at her. It seems to me that he isn't hitting the girl very hard and she suffered no injury. I don't know if the two cats would get along well.
