cold kitten

[StefanZ]

How its going, @kaybellee     ?  Not getting new reports makes me nervous.  I get worried there was a bad outcome, the kitten died... 

We are many here cheering on you and this brave kitten!

The baby is still kicking but he wonr budge the weight up even with frequent feeding he is even taling 6-9 mills on some feeds
Although he isnt putting on weight his body is evening out more so he is looking better but ive tried everything he just wont get any bigger :/

I think you need to take him to the vet. He is far far too small and if he's not gaining weight I believe something may be wrong

 

[talkingpeanut]

I agree. I would think there must be a problem with how he's absorbing food.

What is his weight currently?

What is the total amt fed daily?

He is reminding me of a kitten I had from a litter I rescued named Paris.

I have a thread on here about her journey.

Something is wrong hun, I think despite that it will hurt your heart, you must know deep down that he has a very serious issue going on and doubtfully will be able to overcome.

How often are you feeding him? He may need to eat more often.

 

[kaybellee]

In feeding him every two hours and i couldn't put an exact ammount on what he is eating he has at least 3 mills every feed but other feeds will take 6-9 mills easily

 

[kaybellee]

His weight is at 140grams

7 weeks old now and weighs what a 1 week old baby would.

Very scary. 

Actually more like incredible that he is still alive!

Does he play at all or do anything that a normal 7 week old kitten would do?

Have you offered him canned? (pate only) 

3 mls is like nothing, squirt 3 mls in to your hand, it's such a tiny amt.

Can you post more pics of him?

 

[kaybellee]

He walks and runs around and plays with my fingers ive tried giving him food ive even put some on a spoon and tried putting it in his mouth ill get some photos of him

It's hard to see his eyes.

 

[kaybellee]

Its early morning here so the lighting isnt great, his eyes are wide open

 

[catwoman707]

Im looking for color/inner lid exposure, etc

 

[talkingpeanut]

It doesn't sound to me like he's getting nearly enough food, maybe only 40-5l a day. Does he drink out of a bottle? Has he seen a vet?

 

[kaybellee]

He has seen a vet 3 times and yes he drinks out of a bottle

 

[catwoman707]

Has the vet done a blood panel?

I would LOVE to see the results.

 

[kaybellee]

The vet hasnt done that he has pretty much given me bottles and milk
Weighed him and given me advice he said that most vets cant do much for a kitten that has been rejected
