Re: Team-BHPians and their Pets

The kitten needs immediate vet attention, milk every two hours in a syringe and also their anus has to be stimulated with a warm wet cloth so that they can potty.

Every hour unfortunately is vital. It will not survive till the weekend on its own. I cannot stress this enough.

If you cannot go to the vet kindly send in an animal ambulance. Facilities in your location are quite good. Willing to donate for medical and sundry costs.

Hoping against hope. Please text Mehul for advice in parallel while you go to the vet. He is coolmel on here and based out of Mumbai and does cat rescues and his WhatsApp is +91 70217 42633

Please do not give normal packed milk. They cannot handle it. Consult a vet as to what you can feed it. Human milk formula available at pharmacies may work. Keep the kitten on a soft blanket and well-ventilated place.

Hope the kitten pulls through this tough time.

Thanks, when I saw the kitten probably the age was in hours. Yeah surely dry food won't work. I was looking for some out of box ideas to feed such a little kitten, as never dealt them before.

Lets see how next few days pass by, fingers crossed !! Surprised to see that the mother abandons the litter, so very un-natural or is that common
The best course of action would be to locate a lactating female kitty close by, and entrust the kitten in her care.

Of course, subject to availability.

Tiny feeding bottles are available at most pet stores. You can administer Ventipro formula milk to the kitten, if the lactating kitty option doesn't work out.

Don't forget neopeptin drops (available at any pharmacy)
