We have had kittens as young as 1 day old. If you can find a nursing mother and get him to nurse and or get milk from her that would be the best thing. At 3 weeks NO soild food, kitten formula. That would be 8-12 times a day in small amounts. NO water or cows milk.
Lucky we got at 1 day old. we did have a mother (LB) that is pregnet when she was spayed. She did not produce enough for him but filled in while we were at work. The schedule was one feeding at 4:30 am 2nd at 6:30 am then at 8 and off to work. At 5:30 pm the next, then at 8 pm, again at 10pm, then midnight.
It takes a bit of work and loss of sleep, but it is so worth it now my little black panther is just over 2 years old. He is my boy and just so loving.
