Found a very tiny kitten on Greentrees Rd, (near 15 and moravian), too young to be away from his mother, does anyone know anyone that just had a litter or might be the owner? He looks pretty skinny so we're giving him food and kitten milk. Just wanted to make sure he wasn't supposed to be with his mom somewhere. (Nextdoor Pines of Moravian)
