I found a litter of kittens who's mother abandoned them. I have had them for 4 weeks they were approximately 1 week old when I found them. I currently have 1 of the kittens who's appetite decreased dramatically. She is taking vitamin supplements with her milk. But she is not eating as much as she used too. What else can I do to help her without the major expense of taking her to the vet to get liquids into her through the bubble on her back??

Kittens: Raising ~ Pawprints and Purrs, Inc. (http://www.sniksnak.com/cathealth/kittens2.html) Bless you for taking on such a huge responsibility. I personally have never found/taken care of kittens this young. After you read this link , go to the top of it and click on cat health, if you look in the right column there is more infor on kittens. Good Luck
