    Yes Aws, get him to the vet now. Milk aspiration can occur quite easily and if the kitten gets milk in its lungs, he will die.

    Here’s some links that TDKers swear by to help raise your little guy. Also, pick up some Goats’ milk. It has probiotics and is easier on his tummy. You feed this to him exclusively until he’s ready to be weaned (6-10 wks).

    I hope Maro is ok.
    Just remember when feeding him by bottle to keep his belly facing downward and not on his back like a human baby. Cats are designed to eat horizontally.

    aws, don’t be afraid of asking questions here, we want you to succeed in raising your kittens! Yes, like PG said, get him to the vet. MS told you correctly, he should have all four paws down when feeding from the bottle. I’m sure we posted links that will help with this, please look at them, they will be of great help! He can develop pneumonia. If he doesn’t have milk in his lungs, sounds like he should be looked at anyway to just have a general wellness check.

    Oh no aws, I am so sorry. You did the best you could and your little kitten would not have had any chance at all without your help. Please don’t blame yourself, he is not suffering now but playing in the Meadow and running free.

    Aws, I am so sorry that Maro has passed away. You gave him a chance at life but it just wasn’t to be despite all your care and attention.
    Maro is safe in the Meadow and is no longer ill and chasing butterflies and playing with other kitties who have also passed over the Rainbow Bridge.
