Its sneezing and it has white eye discharge and he won't eat anything I literally have to forcefully bottle feed him to make sure he gets some form of nutrients
It sounds like your kitten is experiencing a combination of symptoms that are quite concerning, especially given its young age. The white eye discharge, sneezing, and loss of appetite are often indicative of an upper respiratory infection (URI), which is common in young kittens and can be caused by viruses or bacteria.
For the eye discharge, you can gently clean the affected eye with a warm, damp cloth to remove any discharge. Be sure to use a separate cloth for each eye to avoid spreading any potential infection.
Sneezing can be due to a respiratory infection or environmental irritants. Make sure your kitten's environment is clean and free from dust, strong odors, or allergens. Using a humidifier can also help keep the air moist and reduce irritation in the respiratory system.
Loss of appetite in such a young kitten is particularly concerning because they need consistent nutrition for growth and development. Since you are already bottle-feeding, continue to do so to ensure your kitten gets the necessary nutrients.
Given the combination of symptoms and the fact that they have been ongoing for three days, it is crucial to seek veterinary care as soon as possible. Young kittens can deteriorate quickly, and a veterinarian can provide the appropriate treatments, such as antibiotics for bacterial infections or supportive care for viral infections.
If you have any further questions, please feel free to ask. Thank you.
