Today I found an approx 5-6 week old kitten lying prone behind my workplace. I immediately wrapped the kitten in a warm towel and gave in food and water ( kitten formula and wet cat food). She was completely emaciated, purely skeletal and completely weak, not able to lift her head off the ground. Throughout the day her upper body has perked up tremendously! Unfortunately her back legs are very limp and weak. They don't seem to be paralyzed as she's weakest kicked them several times. She was very cold whenever I found her, and was probably drenched in the huge storm we had yesterday. I've managed to stimulate a small poop out of her but other than that, not much action down below. I'm going to try and find a vet that will be open tomorrow ( I live in a very small town so it's tough) and hope that she makes it until the morning. Any tips on what I can do to help her or what might be wrong would be greatly appreciated!
