I am helping take care of a litter of 6 kittens. They were born on Tuesday the 8th. One of the little boys seems to be sick. When I checked on them on Friday, he was beautiful and wide eyed.
Now today, his eyes are crusted over. They are only open a little on the edges. He also is opening his little mouth and curling his tongue up and making a really weird noise. I am not sure if he is sneezing or if he is spitting/hissing.
The kittens have been sleeping on the hard wood floor b/c their mom took them off the blanket there were on. Do they need to be warmed or put in a box with blankets? I have no idea what to do with this little guy. Please help!! The other kittens seem to be ok, except I think I heard another one making the same spitting/sneezing noise. I couldn't tell who it was though. I am really worried about the little boy. :-(
