Thanks for the reply.

I think I was just panicking when I wrote this topic, since I didn't know if I could raise my new kitten or not. I've read that orphaned kittens 4 wks or older might not be able to tame and would remain feral, and "euthanizing" it is not something I have the heart to do. When I first found the kitten, it was feral like, but after a few days it has calmed down considerably. Now I'm feeding it KMR (if only it would learn how to suck on the nipple instead of biting it all through the feeding), and will probably wait a week or so till I move to the second stage KMR.

Hopefully this will be the last eating related topic I do.
