IMO this kitten starved/dehydrated to death...very sad!

A trip to the vet sooner, may have saved its life.

Laurens advice on here was great, people who breed their pets should ALWAYS buy in formula for kittens who may not feed from mum cat (quite common). Soooo many kittens can be saved by this, also it could be the kitten aspirated the milk when feed with syringle. People need to be very careful when doing this, and go in via the side of kittens mouth and slowly. Not through front of mouth...

Poor wee kitten, my thoughts are with him....
