She’s a darling, have a vet check her out. If she has an eye infection it should be easy to treat.
Miss Karamel is cutie. I’m glad you and she were in the right place. Please take her to the vet. to make sure she’s healthy.
Pounce on Miss Karamel! What a sweetie!
Totally agree with the above comments that a vet check is your best plan.
Yes, definitely: please take Karamel to a vet to give her necessary inoculations, test for FIV and leukemia, etc, and also:
– She needs cat’s milk (not regular cow’s milk) to give her the immunities she should have gotten from her mother’s milk but stopped drinking mother’s milk too early.
– In the wild, kittens need help pooping at a young age. The mother helps by licking the kitten’s back, right at the base of the tail. To simulate that, you can take a washcloth and dampen it with warm water, and stroke her back, an inch or two from her tail, going in the direction of her tail. After a few strokes, she should have let something out. If not, keep trying for a while… or eventually ask for more help (the vet can help you in this area too).
Good luck to you and Karamel! I wish you many happy, healthy years together. :3
Karamel looks like a little darling, ready to leap into your arms.
I agree – you do need to get her checked by a vet, especially if her eyes look funny. I think she looks a bit more than 4 weeks – the vet would be able to tell you – and that will help you decide what kind of food is best to help her grow strong and healthy.
