What should i do for a stray kitten that wont eat cat food?

Annalee

My sister found a little stray kitten this morning and we gave her water and some cat food but wont eat or drink. Should I buy her some cat milk or anything? Thanks SOO much!

It could be too young for solid food, or it could be ill. You should either take it to a vet or a shelter. They will check her out and give her the care she needs. If you cant do either, go to a pet store and buy a bottle and some kitten formula. You might have better luck feeding her that way. Whatever you do, do it quick. She will become dehydrated very quickly which is dangerous for young kittens.

Try canned tuna

You should take it to the vet. The cat can be sick and that could be the reason it doesnt want to eat/drink. If you are unable to take it to the vet (as most people on Y! A say), take it to a no kill shelter so it can get the proper medical attention it rightfully deserves.
