Head tilting problem

Hi
i need advice i've notice one of the kittens born on the 10th to a experanced and very good mom has develop a head tilt.
Its not painfull and he gets around really well and suckles like there is no tomorrow.
The problem is i was going to start weanin them next week but with his he it may pos a problem . Any ideas would be good . Was thinkin the useul methood to start dip my finger in food and on his nose.

I take it he wasn't born that way? It could be an inner ear problem, injury, or even a stroke. I would think a vet visit would be in order to see what you are dealing with. First foods are usually canned, thinned down with water so they can lap it up. You might want to put it right in their lips so they don't breathe it down into the lungs. Please give us more info on the kitten once you find out what it is! I pray it is nothing serious and can be fixed!

If they were only born on the 10th, it seems a bit early to start weaning.  When i have raised litters of rescue kittens with their moms, I generally wait until they are 6-7 weeks and then just let them get into their mom's food.  They still want to nurse and it is good for them psychologically to nurse for a good 8 weeks or more.  That way they don't become fabric suckers.  The ones weaned suddenly and/or too young often suck on blankets, cat beds, furry things that remind them of mom.  I had one orphan who sucked on the fur of my old Siamese for his entire life, even when he was grown, and did not stop until the Siamese had passed at age 19 1/2.  Then he tried it on another cat who would have none of it so it ended, and he sucked on a stuffed bear toy instead.  Poor little guy was taken away from mom at about 4 weeks, so he never got enough nursing.  As for the head tilt, I agree he should be checked by a vet.  It could be an inner ear problem or it could be a cerebellar problem, a slight bit of wobbly kitten syndrome. 

The other 2 in the litter try to eat their mums food. Not planin on totaly weaning them next week just give them a taste so their mum can eat in peace.lol.
i usely mix can food with lacktol(kitty milk) so it like a wstery porrigde consisanty.
And dip my figer in and lead them to the dish etc. But as i said wont start proply weanin till at least 5 and a half weeks as their mum is all ready gettin scratched to bits. They wont leave their to their new homes till they have all had their jabs. I believe in leavein them with mum as long as she will put up with them

Feelin the little one neck it dosent seem to b a bone problem but i am no vet so will book him in asap but how would i transport him? With mum and his bro and sis?

Yes, just pack up the bunch of them together.  At this age the vet can also give them their first worming.  Do NOT use over the counter wormers, because they can be very dangerous.  Either get medicine from your vet or have him tell you which ones you can buy that are safe.  It is a shame there are no laws to protect animals from inferior wormers and inferior flea and tick medications, but always ask your vet before using anything that does not come from them!

Yeah i know that one . We had aflea outbreak last year spent a small fourtune on shop bought sprays ,drops etc . That maybe worked for a hour. We went to vets for a spray work great. We now put garlic in the animal feeds to keep them away.

I also use only nstural products as much as i can. I almost lost my horse to a chemcal wormer

Clean bill off health if silghtly over weight for his age. Have encourge more movement to help him strengthen muscle. Might grow out of it . Have to take him bak just before weaning in couple of weeks. For pos xrays if not righted its self.

Little man is fine within 2 days of takenin him to vet his head corrceted its self.
My hubby reckons he was puttin it on because we were discussing wot to do and we decide to keep him( couldnt bear him going to another home only to find that the new family couldnt cope with him.)
and couple days after his head is fine.lol.

In fact he more than fine runnin round the bed playin biting(well tryin to teeth r just comin though)fingers,escapin out his bed and sleepin with us. Twice my hubby woke up with Stark(his new name) on his head or in his hair asleep .

Clever kitten, he wanted to stay with YOU!

Yip. Will try to get pics up soon.
