My runt kitten needs to grow. Is egg yolk safe to add to KMR?
No, I wouldn't give Buckwheat egg yolk. She isn't used to solid food, and adding that egg yolk (especially raw ones) can lead to vomiting and diarrhea, which will cause her to be dehydrated and lose more weight. I can give you some resources which may help you afford a vet. You an see if your vet accepts payment plans, if there is a low cost clinic in your area, or you can apply for Care Credit online. There is also an organization called Red Rover that give grants for treatment of sick animals, and you can see if you qualify for one of their grants. Best Friends also has a list of resources that offer financial assistance on their website.
