    VERY sick kitten! Please help!!

    FYI, most kittens are lactose intolerant, so cows milk is a bad choice. Pepto-bismol isnt a bad choice, especially if hes throwing up, to at least calm his upset tummy, so he can eat.

    Approx 9 week old kitten with rectal prolapse, saw the vet today.

    I only paid $55 to have the stitch done, they sew the anus to have a smaller opening temporarily while the body gets readjusted to having the swollen tissue placed back inside. But time is of the essence.
