So my Cat, Nico, had her first (and hopefully only. We're going to get her fixed) litter of kittens. She's very trusting of my boyfriend and I and let's us help out. I'll go in to check up and she'll leave me to babysit. But a day or two after they were born I noticed the runt. This is the one I've decided to keep from the litter. His name for the moment is Baby.
Baby was laying there with his mouth open and wasn't moving. I was able to get some formula and feed him myself in time and that's what I've been doing since .
The kittens are now a 8 days old. The mother let's us feed the baby and check in whenever. But sometimes I see her laying on the kittens. These kittens will be screaming underneath her and she'll just lay there. It scares me especially when she's on Baby. Any idea why she would be doing that?
Also, Baby crawls away from his mother a lot. He's usually screaming and crying as he does this. And his head is just bending backwards some and he crawls around aimlessly . Nico doesn't seem to care too much what he's doing. Why doesn't she care? And why does he crawls away? He even does it if I move him back to her.
Sometimes I see Baby trying to latch on to her, but I don't think he's successful too often. So I'm still feeding him with a little syringe. I've tried a bottle but he doesn't like latching on to it either.
I just want to keep Baby, and his siblings, alive. Please, if anyone can help, I'd greatly appreciate it.
