Aw. that is tough. I had someone drop off a litter of 4 day old kittens cause the mother died. I bottle fed them but only one made it.....that was 10 years ago and the one that made it still lives with me
Make sure you stimulate her bowels and area to promote peeing and pooing if momma isnt doing it. Does she suck on the bottle or are you using a syringe?
