Sick Kitten

We have about a 2-3 week old kitten who has not been eating since yesterday. We have been trying to force feed her, but it isn't doing much. I am extremely worried that this kitten may die because of this. We have been feeding her every 2-3 hours during the day and kept her in a warm basket. Please help...

 

Hi. It's best to consult with an emergency vet at this point. It's very common to lose kittens between birth and 12 weeks. Did you try drops of Karo syrup to stimulate the kitten?

I'm heading out the door to try that now. Thank you.

 

The kitten did not make it. It died over night.

 

I'm sorry for you loss. :cry:

 

I am very sorry for your loss. :cry:

 

I am so sorry.

 

Sorry to hear that. It may have been "Fading Kitten Syndrome" and there's really nothing you could have done.

 

I'm really sorry for your loss.

So sorry about your kitten.
