[ARCHIVED THREAD] - New Kitten. Halp with diarrhea.. update

Posted: 7/13/2021 1:30:49 PM EDT

Adopted a 2month Tabby.
He has had diarrhea every day since. I called the adoption place. There Vet prescribed 5 days of Panacur and three days of Ponazuril also to sprinkle a half packet of Fortifora on his food
We have done all of that. He is still having diarrhea. His diet consists of wet food and boiled chicken.
He also has many accidents outside the litter box
Pee and poop
Thanks

I'd have the cat seen by a vet. Blood tests, etc. The only way to really find out what's up. Sorry your cat's sick.

He has a appointment tomorrow.

Knowing his diet before you got him would help diagnosing. Try adding a little canned pumpkin to his diet.

Bring a stool sample if you hadn’t planned on it, it’s the only way they can tell if it’s from worms, giardia, etc.

Try feeding him only bland food, cooked white rice and boiled chicken or ground beef.

I forgot to mention. I took a stool sample to them last week. It came back negative.

My wife always got rice cereal from the babies section of the store.

You didn't mention it but milk can give them the shits. Good luck with him.

They kept him yesterday. They said he looked dehydrated and depressed.
Of course he is. He has had diarrhea for almost two weeks.
I'm waiting for the vet to call me back.

Just putting this out there. You probably already know this. But just in case, NO COWS MILK!

Lactose will give cats diarrhea for sure. Goats milk and or the kitten milk at the store is OK.

What kind of wet food and how much?

When we got Clarence he had some borderline diarrhea issues that cleared up when we took him OFF kitten food and put him on adult food. I think it was just too rich for him.
