Thanks so much for the kind comments You know, I remember when Anne was just so so so sick, and I hadn't a clue what to do to help her- the vet really wasn't any help... I found this site through Google, thank God. I just appreciate everyone here stepping up and giving me info and ideas. Truly...

I don't know if any of you remember us, but I posted here a couple of months ago asking for help with a tiny kitten we rescued and were trying to keep alive. I wrote about her on this thread, here. Well, I wanted to let you all know that she is doing just wonderfully, so healthy and just full of...

Oh, thanks so much Susan... for the compliments and for that tip about the vitamin E. I have some on hand and I'll put it on her before bed tonight

Folks I just wanted to let you know that I posted a cute picture of Anne on my blog. There are actually two recent posts with pics of the little sweetheart... if you scroll down a bit you can see how fat and happy she's getting to be. She's hardly even like the same baby!

Well, I wanted to let you all know how absolutely great Anne is doing! She fared well during our absence. We decided to leave her here at the house all cozied up in the guest bathroom, and have a friend come over to the house periodically to check on her, feed her etc. I was quite worried about...

Oh, I just thought of a question I had for you all! I noticed the other day when I was bathing Anne, that she still had part of her umbilical cord attached. You can't see it normally as it is hidden by her fur. It's dried and black and about 1/2 inch long. This just seemed a bit odd to me, but I...

Thanks for not thinking I'm ridiculous It means a lot, it really does!

Anne was getting sick on the Just Born... now it may have been her own issues, goodness knows she has issues! In fact it most likely has nothing to do with the Just Born formula, but at this point I'm willing to try anything to get rid of this diarrhea! So that's why I opted to try for the KMR...

awww.... thanks so much! Your encouragement means a lot, it really does She is getting brighter and perkier bit by bit every day, but still we have the diarrhea I went to the pet store and got KMR (what I had before was a kitten replacement formula made by a company called "Just Born" from...

Thanks for the tips... it never would have occurred to me that the chicken would have made her stools looser I just followed your suggestion and gave her a couple of ml of the pumpkin. I am really feeling desperate to help her with this diarrhea- it's so messy and her poor little bottom is so...

WEll, honestly I don't know what kinds of worms she had... or even if she had any at all. The vet wasn't able to get a stool sample, so she was just going on the assumption that she had worms, I think. Anne did have diarrhea when we brought her in, but it wasn't so terrible like it has been. She...

Good news about our little girlie She is ever so much better this morning. I followed the advice to dilute the KMR with electrolyte solution and she seems to be tolerating it a bit better, still very wet stools though. I think I will get some of the chicken baby food and some immodium when we go...

I posted some new pictures of the baby on my blog today... if anyone is interested. She is weak, but able to sit up... and she is such a pretty little thing!

So do you all think I should be giving her the wormer then? I am supposed to be dosing her every day with .25ml. I have done this every day, except for yesterday because she was doing so badly and I was thinking the wormer was making things harder for her.... Do you think I should resume the...

The kit is doing much better today.... at least she made it through the night, which I honestly had my doubts about. Thanks for the tip about keeping her warm, I've been holding her on my chest under my nightie and with a layer of fleece over the top. It does seem to have helped a lot. She took...

Well,thanks so much for the advice folks... I gave her some of the kitten formula in a syringe about 2cc's I think. I also gave her some of the canned pumpkin which she took pretty well. Of course as soon as she had those inside of her she started poo-ing, so I don't know if it actually helped...

But I'm hoping no one minds me dredging it up! This is my first time here... I found you all as I was searching for some help with my wee little one. She's 4 weeks old and has been abandoned by her mama. She was found with some siblings at the farm of a friend. The woman fed them all milk (bad...
