I dont know if you have much access to it up there, but powdered colostrum might help out the little one's immune system as well. We used it with the kittens we rescued with the feral cat organization I worked with down in Texas...and it really seemed to help the little ones out. I havent used KMR in quite awhile, so Im not sure if it has the colostrum in it? If anything, the colostrum can be an added tool to your arsenal to keep that little one growing and healthy. Good luck
