Lucas, you must take this kitten to the vet as soon as possible. This is the only way you have any hope of saving this kitten.

im sorry but my kitten passed about 2 days after i posted im sad but i now know what the cause was: worms i believe it was a worm that usually gets in the intestines and mistakened the umbilical (probably spelled it wrong) cord to be the intestine and got into the kitten's stomach thankyou so much im very grateful.

comment from Kate
i am so sorry to hear that, what can I say, sometimes there is just nothing we can do in time.
best wishes Kate
