Advise please

Post by Gizzyozzy »

Hi my kittens will be 4 weeks this Saturday,
I noticed this evening after work that
One of them isn't feeding at all. Mother
cat lays with him and cleans him but he
isn't interested at all. He always been a
little smaller but all of sudden the other 3
are huge compared to him and he won't
eat. Called the emergency vets this evening
they said there isn't much I can do, just
wondering if anyone has any advice for
me. Thanks in advice

bottle feeding is the only thing now which will save him, and without delay - you can get a kitten formula and bottle from the vet

I agree. Why not say "Come down and pick up a bottle and some formula for him?". Hope he is all right, poor little thing.
