He's just not thriving. He's eating but only with encouragment. He has no energy. He just sits or sleeps. He stares at me with his big dark eyes as I talk to him like he knows exactly what I am saying. He broke 8oz just to dip back down again.
I am giving KMR mixed with RC development kitten. I add electrolytes ever other feeding. His diarrhea is better, I haven't seem him poop for the last 24 hours but momma is still cleaning. She even tries to eat it out of the litter box!
I don't want to give up but ... it just breaks my heart to see him so listless.
He's alert and will walk but he's still so thin.
I've read that this kitten glop is good:
[font=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]1 packet Unflavored Knox Gelatin[/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]2 Egg yolks (ONLY the yolks)[/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]2 Tbsp. Full fat Plain Yogurt(not low fat)[/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]1 Tbsp Mayonnaise(not low fat)[/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]1 tsp Light Karo Syrup (light meaning in color-not the dark Karo syrup) OPTIONAL[/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]1 can Evaporated milk (not condensed milk), evaporated Goat Milk or 2 cups fresh Goat's Milk (my preference)[/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]8 oz (one cup) Boiling water [/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]Do I keep fighting [font=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]to save him or is it kinder to let him go???[/font][/font]
