Answer 1

That happened to my grandma when she got some strays. Sometimes when they don't know their surroundings, they don't do anything. What we had to do was confine them to one room at a time and leave them in there and close the door. They may eat and use the litter box in private. And if he is separate from his siblings, he definitely won't feel comfortable right away. Can you possibly put them together for a little while for a visit and see if he eats with them...follows their example.

Good luck

Answer 2

get kitten food and put water or cat milk(store bought) in it like cerial. wait for it to soak and soften and let the kitten smell the food.

Answer 3

mix some of the milk in with the food. they do have some hard type kitten food, that u can soften with adding milk to it. but make sure it is the kitten kind.  let the food pieces kind of absorb the milk till they get all soggy, kinda like soggy cereal :-p when it gets all big and bloated looking. anyways, thats what we had to do with our kitten

Answer 4

well as long as hes drinking milk thats fine just try to keep feeding him or let him eat on his own

Answer 5

well if he is taking milk keep giving him milk 8 weeks is still young but after another week call your VET and see wat may  be wrong

Answer 6

sounds like he's fretting. The first thing a stressed cat will do is avoid food. Can you take him back to your place for a while so he can be with his siblings? Maybe he's not ready to be apart from the litter yet. If he's looking think and sick take him to a vet right away.
