I used an eyedropper and let a droplet form on the tip and the let the kitten lick it off. I find eye droppers give more control. Don't force it into the kittens mouth just hold it gently to the outside of the mouth. Good luck.

A bottle might work. My Mom just tried to save a little one and even with all here experience(she was a vet assistant) It didn't make it. Do you know you have to help it poop? That may be another reason it won't eat if it's backed up. A momma cat in real life will lick the bottom of it's baby to stimulate them so they don't know how to do it theirselves. Take a warm wet cloth and wipe the kittys bottom gently for a while and see if that helps. Good luck, they are hard to save at this young of age. You might call a local vet for some tips. Did you get kitty milk? You can get it from pet stores or the vet too.

Phone cat or dog club to see if they have a nursing mother that can adopt them for you.

I fed a baby rabbit with a eye dropper for about a week every three or four hours. I figure if it worked for a rabbit, then why not try it with a cat.
