    I found a kitten in my back yard.I think it' aprox. 5 weeks old.How much kitten milk do I feed her and how often?Is using an eyedropper okay instead of a bottle?

    We have used eye droppers to feed kittens until we could get to a store to by a bottle. Just be very careful that the kitten doesn't gag from too much milk at once. But get a bottle as soon as possible. Also the kitten supplement should tell you how much you should give the kitten. We fed ours every 2 to 3 hours. Also you will need to take a damp warm soft cloth and gently rub by where they do their business to encourage peeing. Hope this helps. And someone with more experience should be answering soon.

    At 5 weeks the kitten should be able to manage mushed up wet kitten food.
