i would like to know how to ged rid of fleas in kittens...my hse came a kitten, i've been keeping it for a week now..but its body has fleas, i tried to catch them but the fleas are "smart" moreover the kitten keeps moving non-stop..i once thought of put the kitten into a pile of water and the fleas eventually will come out as i notice the fleas scared of water..but this might cause the kitten to fell sick..
do anyone has such experience to share or any ideas can offer? thanks =)

okay, i'll lookout at some pet shops and see the product. thanks ya.

hehe, here's the pic of the little kitten i mentioned..


it likes to follow its mom..whatever she doing..the mom was drinking water but the kitten cant reach


it insisted to sleep on the mop i think bcoz its soft..


finally, the name of the little kitten is Cappucino and its mom Espresso..hahaha

hehe, its female...very very naughty..but cute

i have a very important thing to ask ...on monday right..the mother cat at my hse was healthy and very active...then i feed her on some meats and went to college. when i came back in the evening, my dad told me the cat was sleeping the whole day and seems blur...so i thought she was sleepy and pat her back then i went in to hse...the little kitten was playing all by herself.
the nx day things got worse, whole day the mother cat was still sleeping and when at night, i feed the cat it shown no interest at all, even to fish...she is reluctant to eat or drink and still like wanna sleep...the kitten wanted to suck her milk she also like reluctant to give..then the mother cat walk away from my hse ...i thought she went to pee or pass motion..but untill now the mother cat has not come back yet...
She left the kitten in my hse (she very very sayang the kitten)...what had happened to her? is she sick or she went other place to die? im very sad now..so as the little kitten, everytime i went out she just crying for the mother...pls advice..

actually i just gave a very little portion, i share with it while im eating, its duck meat...
now i worry about the sucking kitten, it refuse to eat + drink as the mom is not around..she drink her mother's milk. i really scare something happens to the mom... i asked my cousin whether cats will go missing 1-2 days then come back she said yes..coz she has a cat and also tried that before..

i think it gave birth quite some time d as u can see the kitten pic i posted at Post #1224....the kitten i do not know how old is it but i assume it ald 1-2 months old..
the mother is super sayang the kitten...the suddenly left....
before that, its very active and healthy, i just called it at my doorstep..then duno frm where it will come over to my hse...but now...its like gone.. im really really sad and worry
i asked my mom to checked on the drain behind my hse and the empty hse 2 doors nx to mine..still counldt find it

i really wish she is horny...so that at least she is still living...they are stray cats..my neighbour left them after moving into flat (as they cannot rear anymore)...
before the mother left she looks sick...then just walk away like that...
i never cage them as i not really rear them, they roam freely inside out...but the kitten keeps crying for the mom...
i tried feed it with fresh milk, it drinks little only...
it eats a little solid food too, but seems like get bored of the cat (kitten) food i bought.

lolx...im not giving human milk la...where comes human milk...kekekz...
i fed it cow's milk...
i tried provide some solid food but the kitten also no apetite...so sad the mom gone d...i think she has to overcome it

arrrghhhhh.....really ???? i didnt know bout that...lucky she drink very very little only...less than 10 ml...
i feeding it soft cat foods in cans tomorrow
hopefully the kitten eat...only hav 1 kitten...so kesian...lonely

u guys was right, the cow's milk make the kitty's stomach upset...it has soft stool this morning..along with a 5 cm long round worm !!
then i quickly bring it to the vet, it get injected, dewormed and i have antibiotics, fever pills with me. but soon after the kitty vomit the medicine all out including the deworm med...
so i brought it back home, then i bougt a prescribe diet frm the doctor, she said feed the kitty 4 times a day, the food is very very soft + watery type..i feed it with a syringe coz it doesnt wanna eat (ald for 1 day)..but 3 hrs later it vomit the food out...
it refuse drink any water....
sigh......

ya its in a small can, if not mistaken is called a/d ...i felt very bad forcing her to eat and she vomit all out...she doesnt even wanna drink water and she is having fever now..
