3 Week Old Kitten Dieing..

Question
My 3 week old kitten is dying I believe. He has horrible breathing problems and is completely small compared to the other 2 left. 1 has died, and this one is struggling. His stomach is completely bloated, hard as a rock. He has a very weak but piercing meow. We been giving it Antibiotics and feeding it Kitten formula because it will not eat from the Mother. It's been hand-fed and it's not doing any better. My Aunt won't take him to a vet because she can't afford it so my best option would come from you. Please, help the best you can. My mother want's this cat so bad and almost cries when she holds him. He gasps for air and just struggles for everything...When he's held, his head falls to the back when not held up...I think he's losing fatigue and will soon perish...Please, give me your best advice!!! Thank you!! =(

Answer
hi Joshua, I am sorry about this.. but it really sounds like you have been doing the best you can with this kitten. Sometimes kittens just die.
You and your family have given this kitten lots of love and care but many times there is just something wrong.. and no amount of care can change that. I am afraid to say that your kitten is not going to make it. You have given me a good description of him and I think the best thing you can do for this baby is to keep him warm and comfortable and just let him go... sorry.. I wish I could give you some hope..
