Suggestions on Feeding a Sick Kitten?

Try the soft food, It is a little easier of cats stomachs as long as you get the good brand, not that K-Mart brand.

Have you called the vet to see what they think? Maybe there is something really wrong with the cat so it isn't able to keep the food down. I would stay away from milk- when my cats get too much milk they seem to go to the bathroom more.
I'm not sure about soft food either. Easier to digest I would think.

Feeding sick kittens and cats is a hard thing to do, especially the kittens. Have you tried giving them both milk? Maybe it can help.

I would call the vet and see if maybe they could give you some advice. Is there an animal shelter near by that could help answer your questions? Try an eye dropper and maybe helping the kitten swallow with rubbing your fingers down,maybe the swallowing part is making her not be able to keep it down?

Not cow milk-don't give that. It can cause problems all of its own.

Try kitten formula if you feel they need it, and a dry kitten food. It seems to be the most gentle.

Try giving the kitten small amounts of milk. You need to give the kitten small frequent feedings of milk. If possible you can use a small dropper for feeding the milk.

Again-not milk! Milk has lactose in it, and cats are intolerant of it! If the animal needs it, they should have proper kitten formula, sold in cartons and not containing lactose.
