I have a stray that I feed. I noticed a couple months ago a bloody wound on his head. At first I thought something terrible happened but he seems to act ok. He eats and lays in the sun when he can. Sometimes this wound will be dry and look like it’s healing, and other times it’ll be wet and...

I was going to post something. He is well. We had a talk with another "cat" person and came to some conclusions. He came to me on dry food, it was only after reading the internet that I decided to give him KMR. Then I decided to give him adult wet food, for some reason. His diarrhea got...

Doesn't look like I can get DiaGel locally. I wonder if a DVM would sell it to me. Already paid $8.00 for a single 25 gauge butterfly Buy them by the case and they are like less than a dollar a piece. I will hold off on the Corid. But it is nice to know the dosage. IF he starts looking...

Looks like the math says there is 96 mg of amprolium in every 1 mL. So roughly 3-4 mL a dose. The toxicity shows that it's pretty safe stuff.

Problem is I don't understand the wording. It would indicate that a cat gets 60-100 mg PO(by mouth). I have not done the math but a 9.6 solution at 60-100mg seems like way too much to squirt down a cats mouth. Corid is normally mixed with the drinking water. I will give him some time to...

About 8pm, 4 hours ago. I have a sheet on his door that I track what his input is... but I think it was around 8.

We have mucus and now blood in the stool. Add to that my strong intuition that he has coccidia... if I can find a correct dosage for kittens he might just get it. I had a chicken that was at deaths door, she weighed 1.5 lbs. Her breed normally weighs 5+ lbs. She tested positive for coccidia...

I am in the US, Indiana to be specific. The amprolium I have here is an antibiotic used to treat coccidia. You don't find many people using it for cats, but it can be used. The trade name is Corid. Thanks

Ok I got bene-bac and some cat anti-diarrhea stuff. The DiaGel I would have to get online, as you know. Tonight we have had 3 episodes of Jacob sitting on a lap or couch only to find out he was "leaking" all over. I have put him in his room for the night to minimize the mess. I don't know if...

She mentioned something about getting a better stool catch, one without litter They are all out of the office till the 5th. As long as I keep giving fluids I think we will be ok till Tuesday. Carolina you say? Thanks

I brought home a new kitten last week. Best I can tell it was 4 weeks old, now in it's 5th week. I have no idea where the mother is/was. I went to the feed store for chicken feed and this little guy was there all alone starring at me. I will try to give a little patient abstract: Jacob: 5...
