Found 2 newborn kittens in my yard...Mom hasn't come back

[drmolarmagic]

Hi Friends!
Lots of cats in our area and today we found 2 kittens in the corner of our yard behind some boxes that appear to be about 3-4 days old, eyes just opening
We kept watch from a distance and the Mom hasn't returned.
SO....
What do we feed them?
Milk from a bottle? a bowl?
Put a call into local Cat rescue but haven't heard back yet
Any advice is welcome

Try and get KMR (Kitten Milk Replacer) at a feed store. Follow the instructions on the bottle. You should buy a tiny bottle while you're there too. Both those items should be in the medicine/health section. Bring the kittens in to a warm place. Or you could call Animal Control if you can't handle their care.

Update!!!! Mom has returned and is activly taking care of them......problem solved.
Now I can report we will have a family of cats living in our yard. We will have to get Mom and kids spayed/neutered when old enough.

Keep feeding the mom wet cat food and shell stay around long enough to care for the cats to be big enough to spay/neuter
