Layla is about... 4 weeks old maybe? I'm not really sure on her age, so that's a guestimate. Since we got her she's been eating a lot, every 2-3 hours, which I have read is normal. She can't really chew the hard food yet so we soften the food for a little bit in some water, and since Monday, we've added a bit of KMR to her food. Since she was in the shelter for at least a week before we got her, and her being give or take 4 weeks, I was afraid she may need the extra nutrients and such the kitten milk offers.
Since earlier this afternoon, she's been sleeping a bit more than she has in the past couple days, and her usual routine from waking up from her nap is litter box, and then "feed me". She's still using the litter box when she gets up, but she's turning her nose up at the food. Before I posted this I tried giving her just a bit of straight KMR just so see if she would drink it or not, and she did, and went right back to playing with the shoe string. Should I be worried about this?
I've never had a kitten this young, so I feel like I am overly.. cautious when it comes to her. Her first vet visit is next week (gotta wait till payday), where she will get her shots and all that good healthy stuff. I'm just hoping I am just being overly paranoid and she's just not hungry. Some advice please?
