New tiny kitten

Hello! We have acquired a teeny kitten (supposedly 9 weeks old) but she’s the runt and is very small.
i haven’t weighed her, we only got her today.
We’ve kitten proofed the lounge and are keeping the dog and the other cat away.
She has one snotty eye which I’m cleaning every couple of hours with cooled saline solution
I’ve bought kitten milk and dry and wet food (the same as she was having where she came from).
Shes done a wee and a loose poo in the litter tray and mostly slept. She wasn’t interested in the food or water or saucer of milk so I syringed about 5ml warm kitten milk into her and that woke her up a bit. she then ate a little wet food.

are we doing the right things?

I wish I was there to watch "Murder in the bag" in person. Excellent headlock in the first pic, Penny!

Gorgeous!
Especially, to me, the one of Merlin looking back, all innocence, and Penny, just her eyes showing, plotting her next move ❤️❤️❤️

I love the Murder in the Bag pics, those two look thick as thieves!
