take it to the vet
can a 6 week old kitten drink powered milk mixed with water. the powered milk was bought at a pet shop
Never give a kitten cow milk. It may cause severe upset stomach, gas and/or diarrhea. ONLY give kitten-milk replacer (KMR) If the kitten is 1 week old, it's going to weigh around 4 ounces. It should be given 32ccs of KMR 6 times a day. 2 weeks: weight of 7 ounces. Fed 56ccs of KMR 12 times a day. 3 weeks: weight of 10 ounces. Fed 80ccs of KMR 10 times a day. 4 weeks: weight of 13 ounces. Fed 104ccs of KMR 8 times a day. 5 weeks: around 1 lb. Fed 128ccs of KMR 6 times a day.
yes
6 week old kittens should still be with their mother, if they do not have a mother then you should mix a tiny bit of soft kitten food with kitten milk (never use cow's milk) and slowly decrease the amounts of milk as he gets older. Make sure they get enough food by feeling their tummy-if it is hard, they have had enough, if it is soft, then they need some more. Don't feed them too much at once or it will make them sick. You should feed them about five or six times a day or whenever they are hungry. :)

from its moms milk it
It depends on what breed of cat.

You should see your vet or pet shop to get the proper medication. A six week old kitten is too small to get adult cat medicine and you can hurt it with the wrong stuff.
Maybe, it should be ready for solid food though.
Im not sure exactly why but you need to take it to the vet right away!!
No cure is guaranteed; amoxicillin, in the correct dose, is very likely to work, but may not if the bacterium is resistant. The dose would have to be adjusted downwards for a kitten, of course; please see your vet.
around 6 months.
Yes, and once they are 1 year old they are officially an adult. When a cat is 7 years old it is officially called mature, 1 year olds just have most of their growing done.
The answer to that would depend on your willingness to give time and effort; ie if you want a low-maintainence pet, I would suggest a fully mature (but not an old geezer) cat, instead of a kitten. However, if you are willing to give more, or want to get two or more, I would recommend a kitten. Note: Make sure the kitten is old enough to be taken away from it's mother; a few weeks may not be enough! Good luck & hope this helps! i would sooo prefer a kitten because there sooo cute and you can have them for longer :)
5 to 6 weeks depending on the kitten. Some kittens start earlier and some later. Use kitten food.
Ideally you won't remove the kitten from its mother until it is at least 12 weeks old. This allows the kitten to learn important social skills from its mother and siblings. You can help the weaning process by providing shallow dishes of clean water and canned cat food. There should also be a litter box the kittens can climb into and out of; this needs to be cleaned on a daily basis.
