Hand Raising Orphaned Kittens

Learn what to do to care for orphaned kittens

December 27, 2018 by Friends For Life

Kathleen M. Gallagher put together this manual on how to care for orphaned kittens:

“in celebration of the hundreds of orphan kittens that I have fostered during the past decade. It is designed to help people who are trying to raise orphan kitten(s); it explains many of the emergency problems and assists with ideas for everyday care. The work involved in raising an orphan kitten is sometimes hard but the results are extremely rewarding.”

The Feral Cat Coalition has also put together some helpful information, including a feeding guide and additional information on warmth and first aid for orphaned kittens.
