My Husband I found a abandon four day old baby kitten?

We need help of feeding the kitten and how to take care the kitten.


We never take care of four day old kitten before.My Husband I found a abandon four day old baby kitten?
Buy Kitten Milk (NOT COWS MILK), and buy a kitten bottle or seringe. And feed the recomednded amount.





When feeding hold the kitten in a towl, after he has finished rub her behind (makes her pee, mum would do this).





Make sure she has no fleas or she will become enemic, at around 3-4 weeks try her on tuna.





Good luck feel free to email meMy Husband I found a abandon four day old baby kitten?
You actually have a lot of options for this one, but you need to act really fast on any of them! First, if you don't want to, or don't feel like you can, take care of the kitten, immediately take it to a humane society close to you, as they will be able to care for it. If you wanna try and take care of it yourself though then go to Wal-Mart, in the pets section, and find the newborn kitten milk, and the recommended size bottle for it. Now you can feed the kitty, and it will be getting the nutrition that it needs. Also make sure that you feed it on a regular schedule, as it needs to eat often, and give it a nice and WARM place to sleep, kittens have to stay warm at all times. No baths unless it has terrible fleas, until it is much older, about 6 weeks or so, make sure that you check up on it often as well. You can call a vet and ask them for any additional advice that they can give you, they will probably help you a little at least. Don't give the kitten regular milk though because it can cause diarrhea and cause the kitten to die from anemia. Lastly, watch for fleas, as they also cause anemia, and fast! I have found that vinegar and water spray helps to keep them off of young kittens, but it doesn't do the whole trick.
If you %26amp; your husband are willing to hand rear this kitten you need to be prepared to treat it like a newborn baby. I think they need feeding every two hours.





If you contact your local vet practice or rescue centre %26amp; explain to them that you are willing to take care of it they should be able to provide you with the correct milk etc %26amp; advice. Alternitively they may know of a foster family that may take the kitten %26amp; hand rear if you are unable to.





Have you had a look around the area you found kitty to see if mum is looking for him?
Get with a shelter. Chances are they have a nursing mom cat who could adopt your kitten. You might even be able to foster her. If that's not possible, the shelter will be glad to tell you everything you need to know and show you techniques. They can also help you with finding a home for the kitten if you can't keep it yourself. Shelters are great with these kinds of things and hands-on help along with the support of some seasoned veterans is priceless in these situations.
You need to bottle feed the kitten, go to your nearest pet store and purchase kitten replacement milk in powder or liquid. Do not use home recipes, they do not work well, nor does cow milk. Buy a kitten nurser bottle as well. You need to feed the kitten every 2 to 4 hours including overnight or it will die.Check websites for how much you should feed the kitten. Also put it in a small box with a blanket and keep in warm semi dark room out of the sun. Do not put near A/C vent. Kitten needs to be about 80 degrees. too cold or too hot is not good. You must stimulate the kittens bladder after a feeding with warm water on a cotton ball. Stroke the kittens genitals until it urines, like a mother cat licks the kitten. Look up on line how to care for the kitten, lots of great wedsites out their which will help you care for him, also take him to the vet as soon as possible to be check out and see if he is doing okay. Websites will tell you how to check his weight progress etc and problems to look out for. Good Luck!
get the kind of bottle nipple that is long and narrow... not like a U


it is easier to get them to drink.





When you wipe thier bottom wet the rag so it is more like momma's toung.





You will have to be mom... so feeding every 2 house is a must...





After about 3 weeks buy the formula that is for older kittens ... don't wait ... they need the extra neutrician.





When it is about 4 weeks old you will have to get a sand box.. I use the lid of a shoe box at this age.... It will play in it at first but eventually you will be able to seed it with the babies poo and it will start digging.





You can also ask around and find a suragut mom who will take on a new member.





good luck. %26gt;^..^%26lt;
