Re: 5 week old kitty wont eat food or biscuits
Some of them do take a bit of tempting, its just a matter of trying different things to see what piques their interest. Once you find that, then they are usually more open to trying other stuff.
Have you tried fresh foods ? Some fail saves are boiled chicken breasts, blended to a paste with some evap and warm water, plaice cooked with a little butter and scrambled egg made with evap and plenty of butter. Make sure she at least gets a taster, but smearing a bit around her mouth, so she has to lick it.

Get some wet food & put some on her mouth & paws so she will have to lick it off herself. Mine started eating raw at 4 weeks and all were eating it by 5 by 6 they had only just had kitten food mixed up in it, none like biccis all like wet & raw!
