Poor girl. If she is not eating food, then this is an indicator that she may have an infection. At this age, most of the kittens should be almost weaned off of her, so it is ok if she is not producing a lot of milk. You can start giving them kitten formula mixed with soft canned food at this point and help them wean completely off of mom. Here is one product to consider--> https://www.chewy.com/royal-canin-mother-babycat-ultra/dp/33913?utm_id=27615258&msclkid=fc531f6858681e024d0142b0586ef3e3&utm_source=bing&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=Shopping-Product%20Targets-Consumables&utm_term=4584826050804684&utm_content=Royal%20Canin Then it's best to take Thankom to your local vet for a proper exam to determine why she is not eating well and get her treated based on the underlying problem. I do hope that your pet Thankom is able to get well soon! Best of luck and take care.
