I would recommend offering her fresh water and a commercially available cat food if you are planning on taking care of her. Milk is not toxic to cats but may cause gastrointestinal upset in some cats if given in large amounts. I would also recommend an examination by a veterinarian and a rabies vaccine for her and her kitten if you plan on taking these cats in as your own/providing them with shelter and care.
