Re: Help needed regarding 3 day old kitten
Good luck with your baby, you must be shattered. I have had to hand feed and it is incredibly draining. I've always used RC milk and never had a problem with it, I did with KMR when I tried that. Little babies are tougher than they look. You may find when Mum gets over the whole birth stress, she accepts her baby. You could try her again, to see if she accepts her, as long as you are there to ensure she can not hurt her. Even if she just cleans her for you, its a start.
Good luck ![]()

Re: Help needed regarding 3 day old kitten
Really good luck for Lucy I hope you are over the worst.
![]() I experienced something similar it's such hard work. I felt drained all the time, I've got 3 children so I couldn't understand why I felt sooo tired! Unfortunately the kitten I tried to save also had chest compression which although he'd been seen a couple of times by 2 different vets they didn't spot it. Once I was feeding him, it became really obvious, he also had poo problems. I had to have him pts at 4 weeks old, it still makes me sad that there was no happy ending for him. ![]()

Re: Help needed regarding 3 day old kitten
I am so sorry to hear about Lucy, you must be devastated. You did your very best for her and gave her every chance. Mother Nature can be very cruel at times. At least now she is reunited with her brother.
