dont think buffalo milk is a very good idea at all, i can imagine it to be way to rich for such a young tummy to digest. stop giving her this milk it could make her very sick indeed. get her to a vets as well, and please no more buffalo milk, water is best and maybe some watered down cows milk, it could be possible to get kitten milk which will have all the right ingredients for one so young.

where is the kittens mum, thats the best milk, mothers milk, and why is the kitten not still with its mum, im sure its way too young to be away from its mother and litter mates.

I thought you should leave a kitten with its mother until at least 8 weeks old. OK, there may be circumstances where that is not possible (mum died?).

Please do not give buffallo or cow's milk. They can't digest the lactose. Gives them a poorly tummy. Try buying cat milk (available in most supermarkets) and water it down. When I was young, my mother hand reared a kitten whose mother had been killed. She used a pipet dropper and fed it warmed water and some kind of weak baby formula. Moving onto thin gravy made just from meat juice. Grew into the biggest cat ever!!!
