My boyfriend and I just bought a 10 week old kitten.
The woman we got it from said that it has been depressed ever since its two brothers were sold (we don't know the details about the mum, if she was still at this woman's house) and is not eating or moving very much.
We took it home, and it has not moved or anything. It just looks like its sleeping (it is still breathing). We have a syringe to force feed it soft food, but something is very wrong!
Is it just shock from being away from its family? And how do we remedy it?
