She's siamese and her color points will come in as she matures--very very cute kitty. Don't leave her alone for 5 days. Even my mature grown cats aren't left alone for that long. Ask a close reliable friend or relative to come in daily to check on the kitty, make sure she's got fresh moist food (toss out the old food and wash the dish so bugs don't come in), make sure her water bowl is refilled with clean water, play with her a bit so she doesn't forget how sweet human contact is, scoop her box so she doesn't develop an avoidance of the box. If you don't have a close friend or relative, call a professional pet sitter (which will cost you)--your vet or the local SPCA should have listings. Why did you wait so long to start figuring this out?????

Get a family member or friend to drop in on her once or twice a day to feed her and give her fresh water. A couple of days at a push would be okay to leave her, but not 5. Her water would go bad and she could become very sick.
Failing that you will need to board her. Most vets do boarding, but if not I'm sure they can reccomend someone to you.
If you don;t get someone to care for her you will come home to a very dirty home as she won;t use a dirty litter box (this may cause long term problems too) andquite possibly a very sick kitty from drinking dirty water.
She looks as if she maybe Siamese or part Siamese. Very pretty kitty.

you cant leave a kitten alone for 5 days, you need to find a boarding place or something...she will not use the litter box without it being cleaned for 5 days first of all...and her food wont stay fresh for that long, or her water for that matter.green water and moldy (you said her food had to be moist) food is bad for ANY animal let alone a baby.

She is way too little to be left on her own for 5 days. Hire a pet sitter to come in and feed her. She is a Siamese mix.

She is too small to be left on her own! There are all kinds of things that could happen to her.She could get caught in blind cords,chew on electrical cords and get electrocuted,fall in the toilet and drown,eat something that she shouldn't,choke,get stuck behind something,etc.Not to mention,she will be scared to death,being all alone.You need to leave her at your vet while you're gone,she will be safe there.

You really can't leave her at home alone, she's way too young. Surely you've got friends or family who can look after her or if not you can leave her at a cattery.

she should be fine with dry food. Leave plenty out along with water.
You should have someone check up on her once a day. That would be the best thing to do.
Or board your cat somewhere while you are gone.
