I started fostering about a year ago and have had nobody to talk about poop, nipples, poop color, consistency, formula or any of the fun stuff so I am GLAD to meet ya lol! Aren't they just amazing creatures though?
This poor baby was packing some rock hard poo in there...the good news is I'm getting a few out with every feeding and it looks like when he went back to his bed he got a few more out. I used a light blanket so I could see if he had been doing anything. With his last feeding he went a lot more...
I appreciate the info! Yes, I am wondering if I should just continue with the drops since I don't want him to be miserable for one minute. And knowing that he can NOT go for a few days without concern is a relief for me as well since I'm the queen of "freakout"!
WE HAVE POO! I put a few drops of the oil and together we held on for dear life and got two small sized logs that were obviously constipation but it's a beginning and atleast something is coming. Thank you thank you thank you! I did all that you said from the warm running water earlier to the...
I've been using the powdered kmr and I'm thinking of using the ready made overnight because I hear that can sometimes CAUSE diarrhea so it may atleast get him going. Thank you for the info on how much to feed! Everyone has been so welcoming here and I can't thank you all enough.
Your post has taken the fear of God outta me atleast! Thank you so much for telling me your story because I had no idea an enema was even a possibility! I think I'm just going to stop with the remedies and go ask the vet to please do that if I don't have results by morning. I have only had him a...
You just made me very happy lol...he is eating about 20ml/1.5tbs per feeding. He eats about 5-10 right away then I will keep him up and spend another 30 minutes petting, bonding, potty, cleaning, etc. during that time he will munch another 5-10ml and by the last swallow he generally passes out...
Right? When I brought him home Friday (the shelter told me he was at 3 days old) his eyes weren't all the way open and his ears were still pretty folded. I'm tending to agree with you because now he seems much more advanced. I know he can hearñxjddddl
Wow! I have not been able to weigh him daily but I can tell he has gained in the three days. He is much fuller...I will get him weighed today and make sure that I am feeding him a lot more often! Thanks!
I have tried with a warm wet towel and manual but will definitely give the warm water a go and then try the other method with the drop of oil. Thank you so much! I really appreciate it!
Pleased to find a site for others owned by cats :) I am a new bottle-baby mom and I have a six day old thriving little guy who has had quite an adventurous life so far. He is eating great every three to four hours, appetite is there, is peeing every time with manual method. My only worry so far...
