I found the kitten on June 29. They were originally three but the mother cat came back and took the two, and left the one I have in my care. I waited a full day and she didn't come back.
Animal rescue services/shelters were already rare before and even more so during the pandemic. Government authorities also aren't that well involved with animal rescues in my country unless the animal was getting really abused or neglected.
People under 21 are not allowed to leave the house in my country due to lockdown so I am physically unable to go to vet, nor do I have the funds for it. My parents do not support me in caring for the kitten, they are unwilling to provide funds and vet support. They were even thinking about just tossing the kittens when we first found them (
Right now, the kitten (estimated two weeks old) is energetic and has a healthy appetite. However, recently his stools have been inconsistent. Sometimes constipated or he has diarrhea. Just now, his poop was mucus-like with blood. I also noticed that his anus is quite swollen and is protruding a bit. I am currently trying to contact vets online who offer free consultations.
Is there anything else I can do that can give him a fighting chance or if someone else has encountered this before?
