i wanna go back home so bad.
i miss abyadh! poor kitty.
have to feed her. she was so cold and helpless the last time i left her.
last night, she was meowing all day in front of my house.
and the day before. i thought it was somewhere inside someone's house.
but then, i saw that it was actually right outside my neighbor's door.
the poor baby was shaking and meowing badly, alone without its mom.
my neighbor put a cloth and a bowl of milk.
but it doesnt know how to lick it yet.
so i kidnapped abyadh since my neighbor wasn't home yet.
chup! chup! why the name abyadh?
it means white in arabic.
so i made a cup of anlene milk for me and tried to feed her a bit.
but she refused to drink it.
asked my friends via fb and tweet, how to feed this poor baby.
tried using a cotton bud, as my friend's advice. it worked a bit.
but then, nadia from flyfm advised me not to feed with cows milk.
ooo oww!!
but WHY?? and here's why..
DO NOT USE COW MILK! Never feed a kitten cow's milk or human baby formula as this causes stomach upset and severe diarrhea. If a kitten is already dehydrated, this could prove fatal. This includes condensed/evaporated canned cow's milk!
oh my, oh my.. luckily it was only for a few sip.
anyway, thanks guys for your replies.
the next day, i managed to buy
a bottle = rm6.30
KMR (kitten milk replacer) = rm10
total = rm16.30. anything for the hungry baby.
went back home, made a hole for the bottle but i accidently cut it big.
but i fed abyadh anyway.
NOTE: (so that you will not repeat the same mistake i did)
Test the bottle to make sure the hole is not too large or too small. If it is too large it will gush out and the kitten might choke or aspirate, if it is too small formula will not come out unless you squeeze it. A hole too small will cause the kitten to not get any formula at all. Hold the bottle with the nipple down and if the formula drips out slowly then it is just right. Test the warmth of the formula to make sure it is not too hot or too cold. After feeding, the kitten may need to be burped.
deng! did a few mistakes. hopefully abyadh is still alive when i reach home tomorrow.
should watch this youtube earlier on how to take care of the kitten.
