Any Emergency Remedies Can Help a Newborn Kitten Who is Dying?
My cat just had a litter of kittens. One of them is not like the others. She's obviously dying. I don't think I have enough time to run to the feed store to get kitten milk. She's cold and I'm keeping her warm but is there anything I can give her in a dropper that I might have her? Breaks my heart watching her.

I learned that Gerber 2nd foods (little jars of meats, chicken, turkey, ham, and beef) are my husband's and my hero. Our first time pet experience. Chloe cat was abandoned by her mom or found alone for 24 hrs. We waited to see if momma would come back since siblings were gone.
We brought her home and I set some food in front of her, she only looked at it and meowed, ' I'm hungry, ' I replied, 'eat.'.
I didn't know what I was doing and Chloe girl didn't know what food was in the form i presented to her. Luckily for Chloe my husband suggested i tip her nose to touch with it cuz they react by licking their face. It worked!!!!
Then Chloe cat got pregnant at an early age. ( I certainly didn't do any homework) 5 months maybe 5 or 7 since idk what her age was when she came to live with us. Delivering 6 kittens, everyone and Chloe looked fine she nursed they ate dadada. 2-3 days later my Chloe looked like she was dying. On 1st day as I visit her and kittens i stroked her assuring her and i touched the front paws and she'd respond with claws retracting she felt strong, but day 2 when the retracting seemed to be with not as much strength, i rolled it off as tho she's tired of all her busy-ness. No biggie. But day 3, made me call my sister with pro cat experience, crying out to god " please save Chloe!!! ".
She no longer responded to my touch on her front paws. Then when I saw her standing while forcing herself to eat, she lost so much weight i could see her skeletal. That's when my sister, god bless that woman, introduced us to gerber baby foods in little jars 2nd foods meats chicken, turkey is chloe's fave, beef and ham aren't.
I fed her nothing else on command every 2-4 hrs because she was nursing..
