Hi. I was contacted earlier today about a found kitten. It seems to be 3 to 4 weeks old. I have a mama cat and was asked to see if mama would let it nurse. I met the lady to get the kitten. The whole way home it either played or slept. Got her home and my cat heard it cries and got curious. She has 6 2 week old kittens. I let Cali see the baby and she took it right in. The kitten got cozy and things seemed to be going great.
But I noticed she isn't trying to nurse. Actually doesn't seem hungry at all. She very playful. I got a few drops down her with bottle but she fights it. Same thing with a syringe. I gave her a drop of Karo syrup in case blood sugar is down. Im planning on taking her to vet in morning. It just worries me she doesn't seem hungry ive had her for 6 hours now and just a few drops of milk.
