Feed Newborn Kitten (vlemmy.net)

I found a newborn kitten abandoned in a ditch. It was raining, so I took it home to keep it safe. I saw a man in my neighborhood throw the kittens away, saying that they were not pets. There were three kittens in total, but I could only save one. The other two were probably carried away by the water.

I am new to taking care of kittens, so I am not sure how to feed it. I know that newborn kittens need to be fed kitten milk replacer, but I am not sure what kind of milk, how much to give it or how often. I would appreciate any advice on how to care for this kitten.

I am grateful for your help. I will definitely take the kitten to the veterinarian and buy the milk.
