Just put it near a heat pad if possible. They're supposed to be getting 80+ degree warmth if possible. Try not to bathe it unless it shits all over itself.

Yeah, we got a water bottle in a sock, right now it sleeps better on my gut, but I want to moooooove!

If s/he continues to not eat enough, you may need to syringe feed. Additionally, they typically feed better standing with their head tilted back. So you can try tilting its head back with your finger under its chin and maybe it'll eat better. Plus you can feel if it's swallowing properly.

Good idea

If you have a little extra time, I've heard it's good to brush it with a tooth brush a bit (very lightly, like a gentle combing), which helps "awaken" self grooming instincts.

It actually seems to do that on it's own already, but I'll consider

Once it starts eating solid food, give it some attention (petting and stuff) while it eats to help it associate human affection with good stuff. With any luck you'll get a healthy, affectionate kitten in a matter of weeks ready for adoption.

Oh that'll be good.
Kinda worried it won't poop no matter what, also it doesn't want 4 tablespoons of food, which looks as big as it (having doubts it really eats that much every 4 hours.)
I'll keep posted.
