I got a new kitten from someone yesterday and I don't think this cat was ready to be away from mommy. I have tried giving it kitty formula in a kitty bottle, in a dish and I have tried feeding it regular kitty food both wet and dry but this kitty refuses to eat and I am not sure what to do.:(

You should probably take the kitten back to the owner of the mother. It is indeed to early to take the kitten away. Here's some info:

My sister-in-law's cats are always having kittens... what she does is put the formula in a syringe and gives it to them that way... pushes a little bit of formula in the kittens mouth at a time and that usually works because then all they have to do is swallow.
