I want to adopt this free kitten who was found in the trash when she was just a few days old. She has been cared for and fed from a bottle for 6 weeks. Since we have an infant and toddler in the house, my mom is worried that they might get parasites from the kitten. Would the kitten naturally rid of the parasites by now? Thanks!

Has the kitten been checked over by a vet? The kitten should have an exam and vaccinations.

Would that be expensive? We just moved so we are still working on getting some money... would you know the expected cost of a checkup and vaccinations for her?

It depends on where you live, the vet you choose to go to, and what needs to be done. The kitten will need to be de-wormed at the right age, checked for fleas, checked for other issues, and given her first set of vaccinations. The first year will require many vet visits for vaccines, spay or neuter, medication if there are issues.

In other words, there's no such thing as a free kitten. It will cost you. I'd wait until you have the money for any expense that may come up when caring for this kitten. If you can't afford even a basic checkup, you can't afford a pet.

Call one or two vets in the area to find out the cost. We rescue cats and take them to a vet who gives a discount for treating strays/ferals. Also, animal shelters often give out special health-care certificates for vets who are very reasonable, so check into that.

If you are unsure if you can afford the cost of an initial vet visit, you should reconsider getting a kitten. Nothing is free. Kittens require several sets of vaccines over a few months. They also require fecal testing to determine what (if any) parasites they have, as well as dewormer to take care of them. What if your kitten develops an upper respiratory infection and requires antibiotics from the vet.
Please wait until you have more money, and more sense of what caring for a kitten entails, before you take one into your home.

I don't know how the OP will finance vet visits for a shelter Doberman and a kitten to boot if there are no finances in the family at the moment. Both animals will need extensive vet care for a check up and vaccinations.

If you read OPs other threads you will find she collects various insects, snails and moths. Snails are a harbouring ground for many diseases and there is a new baby in the house apparently.

NatureGirl you are not making wise choices at the moment, unless you are just daydreaming about what you would like to have as pets. If you do have snails, and moth pupae you have odered from Ebay, suggest you set them free to get them out of the house and of course a kitten will have any number of parasites, especially if he/she was taken from a garage bin and of all places, directly home. If you did rescue a small kitten I commend you, but then there are certain things you have to consider, dropping him off at a shelter would have been a wise choice, where he could have been cared for properly.
