Hi There,

Any new cat or kitten needs to be vet checked anyway, so I recommend making an appointment. You need to find out if the kitten is healthy, start vaccines, or set up a schedule to start if the kitten is too young. Testing for Feline Leukemia is also a must.

I agree with WildCat. If you are feeding pouches of food containing a lot of water, you may not see the kitten drink. Please avoid offering milk, though. It will probably cause diarrhea, as most cats are lactose intolerant.

Regards,
PHKitkat
