Hi guys, I found an abandoned newborn kitten in my garden this morning. I went to work, then came back in the afternoon to find it still alone. Now i've seen it before that stray cats come and go on their litter, and I don't want to scare the mom away in case she comes back. At the same time, I wonder if this kitten's abandoned. what should I do ? Before anyone suggests it, there are no animal shelters, or any other form of institution that would take care of a baby kitten where I am. :eusa_naug :help:
If the kitten has been alone this long then it's likely been abandoned. When we had cats we raised two kittens ourselves. I would take it in or have someone look after it and just keep an eye out for any female cats in the general area where you found the kitten. If you or no one you know can look after it, I'd call your local shelter and they should put it straight into foster care with someone who has a cat who can be used as a surrogate or bottle fed I'd imagine.
Is there a vet near you? Or do you know anyone that's good with animals or would be able to take care of it?
In that case, if you have adequate money to buy food for the cat, then maybe you should try taking care of it. But that's just my opinion. I like cats:icon_bigg
Hi guys. I took the bugger in. As I said no shelters or anything so for the first night I fed it with actually human formula and an oversized bottle, and today i'm going to look for the sort of milk better suited for cats. maybe i'll start lactating myself. Thanks for the advice guys I appreciate it. if I keep it, i'll ask for name suggestions (!)
