Default kitten doesnt eat as much. I'm perplexed.

need help.

about a week ago i adopted a kitten from a fosterer. the kitten is 2 month old. the previous fosterer told me that the kitten is the most heavy eater compared to her other 4 siblings. She also told me that the kitten loves RC kitten 36, snappy tom and some home made diced chicken, while still on milk occasionally.

but as i started to feed the kitten, i tried giving her those above mentioned food and she doesnt eat as much as an "eater" as she should be. Even if i leave the kitten the whole night without food, the next day she eats just a small chunk and thats about it.Unlike the others that would be rampaging the food dish under the same circumstances.

then i experimented on whiskas wet food, soften go-natural pellets with warm water, soften blackwood with warm water, plenty of snappy tom and still i'm dissappointed with the result. I even gave her the liquid vitamin to increase her appetite but to no avail.

I have and have had more than 6 kittens that i took care in the past and all doesn't have such eating difficulties. any advice?

I think it miss its owner... Does that kitten have a mother..?If it has a mother..maybe it wants to drink its mother milk...Look at the library how to feed a kitten for more information then..It might work...Feel so sad for the kitty..Wish I can help! Or you can see the vet...
