It would be helpful to know how old your kitten might be - if it is very young the feeding and care are very different when compared to an older kitten that has already been weaned. Below are a couple of websites that have lots of good information on general cat and kitten care. I would recommend taking it to a veterinarian promptly to establish care and to make sure there aren't any health concerns since it was a stray kitten. You can also discuss a vaccination and deworming schedule depending on its age. https://indoorpet.osu.edu/cats http://www.humanesociety.org/animals/cats/tips/cat_care_essentials.html
