KITTEN. I'm serious. Srly, 4chan. I need some advice. Anonymous
I found this abandoned kitten tonight, I think the mother was being threatened and tried to relocate all of its babies. I've seen it, its siblings, and its mother around before, but this was the first time I saw it completely separated and away from its typical "home." They're strays that settled in a compound. I and other people would try to play with them, but they kind of hissed and tried to move away, but they were relatively slow. Nothing pathetically slow like newborns, but it was more like walking away, never running.

In any case, the first thing I was planning to do, after bringing it home, was to take it to a vet to determine some things. I really don't want to spend tons of money on the visit, what costs am I expecting from just the visit, to determine its age, what I should feed it, etc etc for a kitten?

Additionally, what kind of things can I feed it from home? I've known a few semi-stray cats that live off whatever food they can scrounge up, but this is a kitten, but I also really don't want to shell out ridiculously priced cat food unless it's really critical. I read briefly, and it apparently needs a diet high in fat and protein. I read that you're not suppose to feed it consumer milk (cow milk?) because cats can't properly consume it? Is that a load of bull, or can I just pour a bowl of milk for it?

Additionally, out of its siblings, this one seems particularly... well-tempered. For a stray, it's really quite and rarely hisses. For its siblings, they'd hiss if you tried to touch them. I can't really describe it anymore, since I really need to sleep.

Any additional help would be... very nice of you, anon.

I figured, Master of the Obvious.
I also figured you enjoy your closed pool full of PURE AIDs.
Not like I haven't had dead kittens before. I just wanted one to live this time.

go to your local pet store and look for some cans of KMR (Kitten Milk Replacer), that's not a specific brand, just what it usually goes by.

I'd say it's better to buy some really good food for it. It's mother has been living stray, so the kitten may have not gotten enough nutrition. To avoid it having problems later, it is necessary to take good care of its nutrition now. But cats don't eat that mucn, do they? I don't think it will be THAT expensive to buy it good food. If you don't have the money, you could always try to find it a home that does.

if after doing some cost-benefits analysis and you find kittens too much work, give them to an anti-cruelty shelter.

Chances are good someone will adopt it and be able to take care of it (they screen people). Some may kill the kitten if it isn't adopted, so make sure you ask on their policy.

If you are unable to find KMR, goat's milk with a little bit of honey will work for the short term. Absolutely do not give cow's milk, as it has a lot of essential fat and nutrients removed during processing.

Hmm, I just found from the store lady that if it has teeth, it'll already eat meat.
It did eat meat, and when I tried to feed it KMR, it DID NOT WANT IT.
Should I still try to feed it KMR, 4chan? Or is that high in fat/cholesterol/protein chicken meat ok?

And uh, I'm suppose to rub its underside with a warm, slightly damp cloth to make it go shit and piss, right?
How do I know its done its little business?

Find a huge forum dedicated to care of cats and animals and ask them! There's going to be far more educated and experienced people there.
Get pictures taken of the kittens to post.

why the fuck to people treat 4chan as their only source of information

No worries. I sat on it.

have it tested for feline leukemia, worms, etc. if its a weening kitten, feed it simulac, NOT milk and water. simulac is baby formula, or just go to a pet store and buy some kitten formula.

One of my two cats was a stray abandoned kitten, too. They make terrific pets.

One of them is dead. The dog got to it.

And brought alive it to the nigras.
