I rescued this guy from the roadside yesterday. Can you guys help me determine it’s age? I’m at a very remote location with no easy access to a vet unfortunately…

    To be clear, definitely feed the kitten if you can’t get help until tomorrow or you will almost certainly lose it. The kitten lady advice is sound. You can get KMR powder and nipples/feeders at big-box pet stores. If none are around, you’re going to have to go to a 24/7 emergency vet. I can’t stress enough, you will probably lose the kitten otherwise.

      I’ve been syringe- feeding him a mixture of lactose free, dehydrated milk, egg yolk and a little corn syrup for the meantime. I’m in a developing country and there isn’t really any infrastructure around pet care, unless in the capital city… I truly hope they have the KMR powder… I’ll embark on the journey with him tomorrow, but by the way he’s been drinking the mixture I’m more than confident he’ll make it trough the night.
