Went to a new vet today and they said they would absolutely never do that surgery on a kitten. Suspect he’s just intolerant to his food which makes sense so will transition to another new one

Thank you. I am going to try the cat specialist vet as it feels like it could be a culmination of things that’s just aren’t being looked at properly. I even told them about the prolapse 2 months ago and they said “just see how it goes”. The only problem is the cat vet is the only one in the area...

Yeah, I’m looking for a new vet tbh as they haven’t been very helpful with any of it. I suspect it could be a food intolerance as he has some minor skin issues too. But I’m scared to change his food incase that makes matters worse again. I’m feeding half wet and half dry, I tried to transition...

yep feels like he just has to have dry food. I didn’t know that about kitten food i might ask about adult food next time I see the vet!

Has anyone had the surgery for anal prolapse done and on a 5 month old kitten? He has had intermittent prolapse since I’ve had him. Already neutered. He had bad diarrhoea the first week I had him then constipated. He now seems to poop fine but still prolapses pretty much everytime he poops or is...

I have had a sneaking suspicion for a while that she’d formed an intolerance to chicken. So I changed her food and no tummy issues since. She is still not quite herself since he’s been here but I just make sure I give her extra love.

Nearly 3 months in and going much better now. It was a hard first few weeks but my older cat now tolerates the kitten, they can be in the same room no issues, and even play together a little. My bigger problem now is making sure I give extra cuddles to the older girl, as when the kitten gets too...

I ended up mixing the food that makes him constipated and the food that gave diarrhoea, which is wet and dry food, and that seems to go well. I’ve tried to transition him to fully wet but any changes seems to ruin his poop consistency so will just stick with what works for now 🙂

Yeah I definitely think about this! I don’t want to wish away his kitten years but I know once he calms down a bit she’ll be much happier with the situation. Thank you

Hi all! It has been a tumultuous journey since I brought home 3 months old Finn to 8 year old Evie, but mostly trending upward. It’s coming up to 6 weeks, and Evie can now tolerate being in the same room as Finn, though she’s stressed while he’s around. She watches him very warily from her...

A As in mix the one that gives In diarrhoea and the one that makes him constipated?

The vet said it was probably just his food or worms and gave him a dewormer and told me to try a different food, he now is constipated instead and his bum keeps sticking out for a little bit after a poo and looks mucusy and bloody. We can’t win. Even the vet doesn’t know what to do 😭

Glad I’m not alone! Gotta tummy issues if her brother is not suffering the same. I’ve got vet on Friday so hopefully they can come up with a plan as well. Let me know how you go!

Thank you, I thought raw was what the breeder meant as well, but when I asked again they said “we just fed him whatever we were eating” which I’m not very happy with. But got vet again on Friday so hopefully we can come up with a plan. I’d be happy to feed him raw if that’s what will work.

Hi all! I picked up my baby 2 weeks ago. He was stressed to begin with but is now settling in great, playing, eating lots. I just can’t seem to shake his diarrhoea. His stool looked fine when he got here, but apparently the breeder was only feeding him human food. So I got him some Advance wet...

He is 13 weeks old. Had all his vet work and was cleared a week before I got him. I do think he wasn’t ready to leave home though. He’s litter trained but keeps stepping in his poop/dragging tail through it on the way out of the box. Loose stool. He’s very social he actually really enjoyed the...

Bella’s crying face looks just like Finn’s! I am certain when he grows up he is going to be such a sweetheart. I mean he is now but hopefully a less screaming one. Evie sleeps with me at night so no room for Finn yet sadly. I usually bring him in bed in the morning after Evie leaves. We are...

thank you! I have used Feliway for years so don’t think it’s that

Th Thank you for your kind words. He is from a litter yes so all of his litter mates are gone too. I of course want it to work and know I just need more time for everyone to settle. But I wasn’t expecting it to be so hard and that everything bad that could happen would. Evie was such an easy...

Can’t keep him in all the time that is, he still spends the night in there but he’s out a few hours during the day
