My kitten wont move

You kitten needs to see a vet ASAP! This is an EMERGENCY!
You can try smearing some honey, syrup or sugar water on her gums and see if she perks up any, but I fear without *immediate* medical intervention she will not survive.

Agreed! Get this kitten to a vet immediately!
How have you been taking care of the kitten prior to this episode? Do you have its siblings? Mother?

Yes i have her mother and sibling. The mother didn't like to get them that much anymore so i went i got them kitten milk. They've been doing good, playing and running sound them bam it just stopped and i tried the vet's here in town and they require 200 to see animal after business hours. I've been giving it a little bit of honey and it starts to move and make noise.

How often and how much are you feeding the kitten? Are you using a bottle or needleless syringe?
that is good, and this is also the advices of Catpack - which was surely correct.
But this may perhaps also hints - they / he by some reason, got too little of food and noursihments. So Im asking precisely as TalkingPeanut: What sort of kitten milk did you gave, EXACTLY? How much, how often?
Maybe the key will be to give more and more often - kmr or goats milk... Perhaps also some sort of pedialyte, to avoid any risk of dehydration or lack of salts...
For this kitten, but possibly also for the littermates.
Please come back with reports, so we can advice you further on.
