| Nearly Dead baby kitten
I found a baby kiten, it is about 3 weeks old. It is in horrible condition. It is really skinny and it hardly has any energy. I do not have any access to a vet. What should I do for this kitten? I need to know because I dont want him to die.

I think his time is nearly up. I have no idea what to o for him. I would appreciate it if someone would tell me what I could do for him. I'm sure he would too. I estimate another 1 or 2 max for him to live. Please help.

I'm very sorry. As you described the situation, I think that it was too late to save him  Don't worry, next time you'll be more lucky.

Actually it was one of babys baabies. Yesterday When I woke up and checked on the kittens, one of them was dead. The grey one with the grey paws. I looked at the other three and noticed that two of them seemed fine, but one of them, white one, was really skinny and had nearly no energy. I didnt know why he was in such bad shape. The day before he seemed fine, they all did. But later that day he also died. The two last kittens seemed good. They were fat and warm. When I went to school this morning, thebabies looked good. But when I got home, they werent good at all. They also had no energy and they were also fairly skinny. They later died, I knew it was to late for them.
I have no clue what happened to them all. It seems like Baby has been feeding them regularly. Maybe she ran out of milk or something. I have no clue. Perhaps it was the massive amounts of fleas they had, I dont know.
Well I am very sad about losing all of them, I felt like they were my own children. Hopefully I can learn what I have done wrong and be sure to be carefuler for the next batch of babies that baby has.
