How do I take care of a 2 week old kitten?
Stick to kitten formula, such as kitten milk replacer (KMR), which can be purchased at most pet supply stores. Use specific kitten bottles to feed them kitten formula. Feed kittens on their stomachs—not their backs like human babies—and tilt the bottle. After they’re done eating, you’ll need to burp the kittens.
What was the name of the cat that was missing for 17 days?
OG, our other orange kitty, had been missing for 17 days. Miraculously, he had made it home. Skin and bones. Tired and starving. But he had made it home. Two and a half weeks prior, on the only warm day in February, OG had ventured outside for the first time all winter.
Are there any missing cats that come home?
The media are always carrying a feel-good story about the cat that makes it home under some hard-to-believe circumstances. Clients bring me wayward cats that have been missing for days, weeks or months pretty frequently. I, myself, have had three cats given up for lost that have returned: 1. Bluey.
How big was og the cat when he came home?
OG has been home six days now and is doing well. He’s still not himself, eating and sleeping most of the time. His energy is low, even though his only medical problem is diarrhea, which is resolving. Full recovery will take a few weeks. He was a 10-pound cat before he left, and he came home weighing under 7 pounds.
What happens if you find an abandoned kitten?
Abandoned kittens are unfortunately at greater risk for health issues. Photography by Branislav Ostojic/Thinkstock. Not every kitten rescue has a happy ending. Since an abandoned kitten doesn’t get the benefits of the antibodies in the mother’s milk, she’s more vulnerable to problems like infections, hypothermia and anemia.
