Yesterday I returned a group of now healthy kittens to the animal shelter and brought home 4 tiny 4 week old ones. They weigh less than one pound each. They are very thin. They don't have the fat wormy bellies though so I did not think they have worms but they may.
Anyway, I am feeding watered down canned cat food and got kitten formula powder today to mix in.
One of the kittens has some blood in her (or his) stool (hard to tell - think this one is the girl though - will check later). It is not eating much at all so I mixed some of the kitten formula and syringe fed it some and will keep doing that. I can call the animal shelter tomorrow but they only have vets there on Tues and Thurs so I am not sure if they can tell me much more than to do what I am doing now.
Any advice?
Here is a photo - the grey one in the back is the one I am referring to.

:blue:cry2:sigh It is not making it. It is very very sick and I have to go to work at 10 and the shelter does not open till then so dh will have to drop me off at work and then take the kitten to the shelter.

:cry2I don't even know if it will survive until dh can get it to the shelter. It is gasping for breath and having trouble breathing. Poor little thing. I wish we could do something for it.

Oh. :( I've been there. Sometimes they just aren't going to make it. From her pic, she looks practically emaciated, poor baby.
