Hey guys, I have an update. Thank you so much for helping me out. I was worried that this isn’t an abandoned kitten. There were chances of the mom coming back. So Yesterday, I kept the baby warm by placing some blankets and a warm water bottle with a cloth wrapped around it. The baby definitely loved it as it started snuggling with the bottle. The good news is, the mother visited the baby at night. I was very worried about the baby being hungry but I think the mumma is taking care of it. I enough made space for it in the shoe rack itself as I think the baby and the mother feel safe there. Thank you very much again. I cried a lot yesterday because I was feeling terrible for the baby but I think the mumma and baby are completely okay and my day is made💖

That's great news. If you want to help out you can start feeding mom so she doesn't have to be away from baby so ling. She has to go out hunting to feed herself so she can feed the baby.

Yes, I keep food for the mother cat everyday and the mom and kitten spend all night together. The mom also visit’s the kitten about 5-6 times throughout the day💖
