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.
about 5-8 days for short-haired and 10-14 for long-haried cats
Yes. A cat is considered a kitten until it reaches 1 years of age. At 1 year old, a cat is thought to have stopped growing and fully mature. Large breeds such as the Maine Coon develop much more slowly and are not considered adult until they are 3 or 4 years old.
7-10 days after birth
Yes, Sometimes the female will mate with a male, not long after you give away her babies, or they grow up. She may do this. My cats did.
yes
For no more than a day and it might make a mess of your place in that time.
use a little warm water and mild soap and wash its bottom very gently, there is probably a little feces stuck to its fur.

You can wean at kitten at 8-10 weeks, but you can sell them at 15 weeks.
It depends on the kitten. Some cats will never be happy being around other cats. It should be fine as long as you introduce them slowly, and don't leave them alone together for the first couple of days.I take in strays - 8 months ago I introduced a 5 month old to my other cats. 3 months ago I took in an 8 week old kitten, and last month I took in a 10 week old. For the past week I have been minding a motherless month old kitten for a friend. It usually takes about 2 or 3 days for the newbie to settle in and be accepted, but they all get along eventually. They play-fight, as cats do, but never hurt each other.Good luck.Usually if a kitten is young it will be more open-minded, and a 6 month old would probably be best friends with the 8 week old and play because they are both kittens and they will have each other to play with. Some cats are the exception because they have had an insecure past, but if they hiss at each other at first give it a couple of days and they will most likely settle down. :)it could take them from 3 days to several weeks for them to get along, i know this from personal experience, they may get into fights that you might have to break up.
Raising a 10-day old kitten requires specialized care beyond human ability. They need a kitten formula for feeding, bottle feeding every few hours, a heating pad for warmth, and even help going to the bathroom. If you find a kitten this young alone, contacting a veterinarian or animal shelter is the best option to ensure its survival.
When they are sick (if it is cat flu) they will not have appetite since their sense of smell will fade. You have to take your cat to a veterinarian to give you a recipe for your cat to be healthy again, and he will start eating again.
It is impossible to lose 10 pounds in a week.
10 week old gerbil
well the mom gets angry and chases you and gives you rabbies on your index finger or face. Depending on how old the kitten is when taken from it's mother it could either live and thrive, or it may die. If it is old enough to be taught to take nourishment on it's own (10-14 weeks) it is very likely the kitten will live and grow into a healthy cat. If the kitten is not old enough to nourish itself, it is highly likely the kitten will die from malnutrition. Also, the one stealing the kitten may not get away without some painful claw marks from the mother.
