Ok. I would use only the Asorbic Acid the vet gave you and in the dose prescribed. I would not use any additional asorbic acid.

TIME CHECK : 3:32 AM

Kitten just pooped
gave him water sugar
he ate
gave him kitten milk
gave him the vitamin c

Some improvements: he can now bounce and grooms himself
back to his fresh clean towel


Hoping he'll get thru and i'm planning visiting the vet again later at 8am

This is a significant improvement from yesterday! You are doing a great job nursing him thru this.

Try to get some sleep. Kitten should be ok for a bit while you get some rest.

Please keep us updated. Will be curious to hear what the vet says.

Sorry late update: We visited the vet and vet thinks my kitten have URI he gave me same prescription

I don't know what is wrong with my kitten cause he can run around sometimes but then after minute he'll just sit around while staring at nowhere is he maybe depressed or something since his two brother died? I keep giving him milk to boost his energy but still no effect

If the kitten has a URI, his body is using its energy to fight the virus off. Because of this, it would be normal for the kitten to tire easily.

Is the kitten sneezing, coughing, have watery eyes?

I am so very very sorry to hear this! You did everything you could for this little one. It takes a lot of courage to comfort a little one as they pass. These kittens were very lucky to have found you and were able to pass in a loving home instead of on the streets.

I hope you find comfort in the fact that you did everything you could for them.

The TCS team would like you to know that we are so very sorry for your loss. Threads are locked after someone has suffered such a loss, as a sign of respect. We invite you to place a tribute at The Bridge as an enduring testimony to your little kitten.
At least you tried to help him, and he knew what it meant to be cared for in his short life. :rbheart:
