My 2 little kittens are only like 2 lbs a piece and I feed them every day. They just won’t grow and they still look like little baby kittens. Why aren’t they getting bigger? I can hold them one in each hand.
I have wormed them every month, they are just regular old house cats. They both are long hair. They don’t look skinny like they were malnourished just small and short.

How do I care for an underweight kitten?

the kitten is half the size of the other three kittens. He is nursing but the bigger kittens push it away when nursing. I am feeding him some kitten formula a few times a day but he doesn’t seem to like it. He is alert but not as strong and playful as the other kittens? How can I help him to gain weight? Is there a good supplement? he is almost four weeks old-is it too soon to start feeding him a little baby food?
