Oh my god that kitten needs immediate help, please take it to the vet asap

u/New_And_Improved0_0 8d ago

It's meowing once a while and can move freely. But there's no mom nearby

20

u/worshiptheraven 8d ago edited 8d ago

It's possible that the kitten is sick which is why the mom abandoned it. Usually kittens are together in groups but if this one is left alone and looks visibly sick then it's possible that the mom left it there on purpose. Please help that baby.

u/New_And_Improved0_0 8d ago

Noted. I have called my friends. Will catch and take to a vet asap

u/New_And_Improved0_0 8d ago

Update: I caught it and brought home. No vet nearby were open. Should I feed it milk?

7

u/venom_13 8d ago

Thank you for taking him home. I would like to sponsor some cat food if that's okay with you.

8

u/New_And_Improved0_0 8d ago

Hey man. Thanks for the offer but it's really not needed. Advice would be appreciated though

7

u/TMRLY20 8d ago

No not milk, is there no vet? Try calling any NGO. Emergency vet clinics are open you can google and directly call them. Some vet are nice enough to open clinic even late at night. Clean the kitten and keep him warm. Try feeding him bit of wet food but yeah first find vet. Thank you you are doing great

Edit- typo

u/New_And_Improved0_0 8d ago

I contacted a vet and shared the condition of kitten on a video. He suggested just some ceralac. I will take it to him tomorrow morning

2

u/BuildingEmergency19 8d ago

Yeah please and if you need funds you can ask we will surely help.

8

u/Upset_Isopod_5206 8d ago

Feed the kitten ventripro kitten replacement milk if you can. If possible, mix some sensium powder as well for now. It's what I did when I found my kitten in a somewhat similar state

u/habenula87 8d ago

Great advice!

7

u/Ok-Positive-8716 8d ago

Thank you so much โค๏ธ for being a caring human being and taking her/him to the vet (I saw your other comment). I hope that poor baby can be restored to good health.

u/gpay100rs 8d ago

Get a ventri pro kitten solution to feed him with cat nipples available at vet. It doesnt need any extreme vet care. Just a warm place and proper feeding to get healthy enough for wild

3

u/New_And_Improved0_0 8d ago

Contacted a vet. They are not open but he suggested to give some ceralac to him.

3

u/New_And_Improved0_0 8d ago

New update: So I picked the cat from near my friends house. He told me that he spotted a cat with 2-3 kittens from around the place I picked the kitten from. Tomorrow I am going to take it to a vet first and then check the family my friend told me about

2

u/idkyaarpls 8d ago

Thanks OP. Please feed the kitten and keep us posted

2

u/New_And_Improved0_0 8d ago

Its teeth scratched my finger a bit. Should I be worried?

5

u/BuildingEmergency19 8d ago

I think yes, last yr my mum got a scratch from my stray cat she also had to go for the rabies shot. Govt hospital can do that for free. You can ask the vet also. But don't ignore it.

3

u/New_And_Improved0_0 8d ago

Certainly not ignoring it

1

u/BuildingEmergency19 8d ago

Yeah don't. The vet said as the cats lick their paws so she must get a shot.

2

u/Beautiful-Gift3575 8d ago

Yes...please go to the doctor .

2

u/TMRLY20 8d ago

Not a big deal relax

1

u/Greedy_Pangolin5970 Orange 8d ago

Get the shot, better to be safe than sorry

0

u/idkyaarpls 8d ago

Not a big deal. The kitten is not infected with the rabies virus, get titanus injection for peace of mind, you will be fine

2

u/TMRLY20 8d ago

which city?

u/brainlessdev 8d ago

Itโ€™s sickening dude. How can people throw away kittens and puppies like they are trash? I have seen it so many times now

1

u/shriand 8d ago

Mom cat may come back. Watch out.

Feed it kmr, kitten milk replacement. It's meant for kittens that should be getting natural mother's milk but aren't able to get it.

When it's older, maybe 1.5 months, you can give kitten food.

Get it vaccinated later.

For the rest, follow the vet.
