3 weeks old, her eyes are open and she can barely walk but she looks so weak, the other kittens are very healthy, and im so worry about her, but i always see her getting feed from her mother, so i was thinking about giving her Yougrt (low fat) or milk low fat, in my town all the doctors are not qualified enough!

We have a 20 month and a 5 month old cat living together, so we need to watch when they’re eating their wet food together, because the the kitten will try and eat the adults food, which we stop.
I’m mainly asking because a friend who also has had cats for years, from kittens, has only ever fed them adult food and they’ve grown up fine.

So I foster kittens. And I have run into a problem I have never had before. I received 3 kittens from a litter. I didn’t get the entire litter as I didn’t have room, what with 2 of my own cats, plus 2 from different litters that are on their way to regaining their health and OI it’s a lot. Anyway, there are 2 girls and a boy. They’re a decent size, I’d guess 10 to 11 weeks old. Perfectly healthy and the lady brought them to me in the same carrier yesterday afternoon.
By about 10pm last night they were hissing at everything in sight, cats, people, even each other. I figured maybe I threw them into the general population too soon, so I decided to relocate them to my room. When I went to pick them all up, the older female and the male started fighting IN MY ARMS! I had to hold them both at arms length away from each other and have my husband carry the runty girl upstairs behind me. They growled at each other the whole time regardless of the distance.
They’ve been in my room the entire day and still no progress has been made. They still hiss, spit and growl anytime they come near each other by accident.
I’ve tried petting everyone together to show them that good things happen when they’re together but inevitably someone will hiss and that sets everyone else off. I’m confused because they’re all littermates and they certainly were find together in the carrier when they came here. Normally when I get litters I put them in my room and they keep together sleeping in little kitten piles, eating, playing and cuddling. The lady who brought them to me says that the 2 she took from the same litter are acting the exact same way. She said it was simply because they were spoiled and had probably been with their mother too long. I’m sure time will help but I guess I’m looking for someone else who may have had this problem.
