Help Please

No, this is normal.  She is playing and disciplining with the kitten.  If he doesn't seem to be injured everything is fine.

It's true what Talkingpeanut said but sometimes they can get carried away they

pin them down at the throat all cats do this to kittens. When they reject them (thought

that's what was happening) they will shove with their nose mouth trying to revive by being rough.

Kicking with back legs normal rough play.  When very young mom's will try to keep

kittens away from male cats because they will automatically hit the kitten over the head to show

dominance.

Thank you all...
Jelly (Mommy) has been a little less rough today. .
I'll keep a good watch..
So Scared she will hurt him

In general, if she wanted to hurt him, he would be hurt. Definitely supervise, but it really does sound like all is well.

I think you should take the kitten away. Take kitten to the vet there might be something wrong with it. They say moms can sense it.
And reject the babies.

True, momma can often reject a baby with a fault on it.  In these cases the caretaker / owner must step in - its often possible to save the kitten.  As you say. 

But she is not beating the kitten up before rejecting.  She just carry away it.  Which is easy - the kitten is usually weak at that time.

Although a momma may try to carry around a kitten by a number of reasons, trying to find a new nest for example.  So dont get panic and shout "abandoned kitten" as soon you see momma takes a kitten elsewhere.   We watchful, try to help and arrange things, but you dont always need to take over the maternity care.

Hello Everyone,
My little Goober is now 5 weeks old.
I've tried to ween him with KMR and baby food but he refuses to eat it..
Also he doesn't go poop unless Mama licks his booty..
Any advice??

Since it's an only kitten he's getting all his social lessons from mom instead of brothers and sisters.

He's just not ready yet. Try again when he's six weeks old. My kittens did much better at 6-7 weeks.

Thank you.
I'll try again in a week. Hopefully he eats and poops on his own♡

No advice except can I kissy that baby tummy ?

Lol. Of course ♡♡

Ok 6th week..
Goober is trying to eat the kitty litter! !!!
Help ....
Any advice..
I changed his litter to non clumping. .
What next?

Just discourage him by saying no and taking him out.

I keep doing that and he thinks it's a game..

Ok friends. ..
Goober has gone pee in the litter box ♡
But I've never seen her go poop..
I don't know if Mama is still helping him.
His belly is not extended and he is still playing and eating..

Advice? ??

It sounds like he's doing fine. Is he eating solids yet? If not, mom is still cleaning him.

No solids yet. Just some KMR sometimes when Mama doesn't want to let her suckle for long. .

He had been trying to eat the kitty litter. .
I switched to the clay brand and not the clumping type...
How do I stop him...
I pull him out and take out the litter but he still does it..
Ughhhhhhh.
