Raising a Newborn Orphaned Kitten is a Loving and Tough/wonderful Experience in Human Life!

If you've often wondered how much you truly care about newborn animals? This could possibly be a test in your faith as a human being? Especially, after the momma cat rejects the tiny little kitten(s) with nowhere to go in his or her new life here on our loving earth.

"What should you do if you find a newborn orphaned kitten in your yard somewhere? Should you just throw her away in the garbage, leave her alone to die of starvation, or possibly feast for larger other animals or even call animal control to take it away?"

Whenever I got home from work the other day. I heard a whining sound in the yard, which sounded like a small bird chirping? Ironically, it was a small kitten, approx. (1) one day old in her birth, slowly crawling around in the grass, it was obvious that she couldn't see anything, but she seemed to hear the sound of living things surrounding her. (Which contrary to popular belief kittens are born deaf and blind).

This beautiful newborn baby girl kitten had the strength and the will to survive in this world for some unknown reason? The momma cat could have possibly taken her to this particular place in our yard knowing that we would take care of her!

My wife and I waited around until the momma cat finally showed up in our yard and snarled-clawed at her newborn kitten pushing her away and acted as though she wanted to kill her. (we believe that she probably killed the other newborn infants also because of her age). As a newborn orphaned kitten she was scared, cold and obviously hungry. My wife and I took her inside our home and warmed her up beside the heater-fan set on 86 degrees Fahrenheit. Because she was shivering so badly.

"I don't personally know if she was just scared or simply cold." This day in the Metro-Atlanta Ga. temperature area was 79 degrees in the shade, but she seemed to enjoy the heater fan blowing in her face for some odd reason as comfort?

After we warmed her up. We fed her with a small oral syringe, which at the time we only had whole cow's milk available. This was our first experience raising and feeding a newborn kitten, which was a difficult, but a loving experience task, since she had to be fed every (2) two hours or so.

After my wife and I did an enormous amount of research over the Internet. We realized that taking care of a small kitten is not that much different from taking care of a small newborn human baby! It seems like TLC or Tender Loving Care is the most important thing regarding any living creature born into this world.

The next day we went to Pet-smart and bought her some milk formula, she seemed to like it? We were still feeding her every (2) two hours during the first week. As of today she is one week old! Loving and licking her inherited daddy's neck for reasons which I don't understand? It could be the living warmth or the pulse of my heart-beat? My wife states that I have got her spoiled! Meaning that every-time she hears my voice, she wants me to hold her.

Presently at the time? I am feeding her every (3) hours of kitten formula. I give her a bath everyday in luke warm water, rub her anus and genitals to make her go to the bathroom each time after she feeds. She still loves to sit beside the heater-fan for some odd reason in her clothes basket flannel shirt sleeping crib and eat on my neck. We also bought her some little baby kitten toys to play with, to exercise her growth in the next coming months.

If you have any suggestions about how to raise this tiny little orphaned kitten?
