My husband and I have rescued a feral kitten probably around 5 weeks today. We did follow protocol when it came to taking stray cats. We left it alone for a whole day and even left the area in hopes the mother would come back for her. Unfortunately after a day she didn't and we decided to take the kitten and get her healthy before deciding to keep her or find her a good home.
We however do not have an appointment until tomorrow as all the vets around me are closed, and though I can't hear her breath she seems to be breathing very heavy and fast. What are some things I can do to keep her comfortable through the night and to not make it worse?
If she does get worse of course I'll bring her to an emergency vet 40 minutes away as fast as I can, but if I can hold off until her appointment tomorrow and save the money and gas it would be ideal.
