Answer
Hi Katironi,

How old was the kitten when it was picked up? I would suggest that one of the first stop for kittens picked up on streets is to the vet for a check-up.

If they are younger than 7 weeks old, they would still need to be fed with kitten's milk.

Is there any cut or infection or redness on her nose when you cleaned the little one?
