Three Week Old Kitten

Question
Hi my name is Laura. Today me and my dad were walking in the field and we found a three week old kitten! It was in the pouring rain...and i mean pouring!! And she was shivering too. We took her home and are going to nurse her back to health and maybe even keep her! We named her maricle because it was a maricle that we found her. We put her in our bathroom and gave her like a million blankets, toys, warm milk, and food. She won't drink from her dish so i started feeding her from a serange and she liked it.

P.S: She is indeed happy she is rubbing against everything! She is purring and cleaning herself.

Thanks so, so much!!

xo,

Answer
Hi Laura!

She sure is a Miracle! How lucky she is to have been found by you!

You will have to feed her yourself for a while, and you might want to put a teddybear in with her so she can snuggle it. Keep her as warm as you can, as she is so little.

I hope you do keep her, she sounds like she has fallen in love with you already :)
