Today I found a feral kitten near my front door. It was laying on the ground. When I approached it could not move and was covered in scabes. The mother was nearby, but just watched on. I picked up the kitten, and it seemed injured and uncomfortable. I could not stand to see if suffer, so I put it in a tub and rushed it to the vet. It has scabies and we are waiting to see it's test results for feline aids. My question is, when all is said and done, should the kitten be returned to its mother? It's seems to be maybe 6 weeks old, if not older. We were debtaiting on keeping it, but I am not sure about just taking it from the mother. The mother seemed to be hanging around even after I dropped the kitten off. I gave her food and water. Would be the best course of action to nurse it to health and then let it go?
