milk for kitten

my mom brought another kitten from her school a few days ago. she said that someone had thrown this little kitten alone, without any mother to feed from. and guess what, the kitten is only one or two weeks old! so, since the kitten was so small, it cant eat anything yet except milk. since we don't know how to come up with cat's milk, my mom just gave the kitten the usual dairy milk we usually drinks at home. i've done some research (cewahhh!) and i was somewhat afraid if the kitten might died if we keep feeding it the usual dairy milk. cats was suppose to drink non-dairy, lactose free milk, which could be digested by cat's digestive system, which means that it's hard for them to digest the normal dairy milk we used to drink at home, and even harder for kitten to do so. but the kitten is still alive till now. by the way, this is one of the kitten milk recipe i've found on the net that i would like to share it with you guys. it's not that i made it myself, in fact, i didn't even have some of the ingredient stated here. so here it goes :
