Our little stray is about 6 weeks old. I'm happy to give him as much food as he'll eat, but I'm not sure if he's getting enough. He's eating about 75grams (almost a full pouch) of Royal Canin wet kitten food each day, mostly at night. This doesn't seem like much, but his energy has improved...

A lot of medications are contraindicated with Piperazine. Revolution is an anti-parasite medicine that combats worms, mites, and fleas. Call the vet, but I don't think you should give him anything else.

Thanks! He seems better today and we managed to entice him with some sardine water. This worked and we were able to mix in his deworming medication. He's still a tad lethargic, but he is most definitely more willing to play now. We've had several good play sessions and he's been eating and...

We rescued a stray last night who was clearly very hungry, tired, and thirsty. We had no trouble getting him to eat and drink, but he was very sleepy. He ate really well. Today we took him to the vet and they gave us some worm medication and eyedrops and told us to watch him. He's about 6 weeks...
