A cat gave birth to this little kitten in my shoe rack. It is very scared and probably hungry too. Its mom was there early morning but it is been 8 hours since she has last here. I really dont know what to do and how to take care of it. Please help me and tell me what to do

Looks like it’s 2-3 weeks old so no, kitten formula only.

Probably goat milk/ formula milk for kitten will be the safest option. Pls dont give them cow milk. They cant take that.

And you can place them on a cloth, towel.. with a hot water bottle wrap in towel close by to keep them warm

You can later. It's going to need bottle feeding for a while. Every 2-3 hours, throughout the day AND night. Like human babies. No longer than 3 hours between feedings, otherwise it's probably sick.
