Figaro's stopped using the litterbox. Not that he used it much in the first place. Now, he likes a corner, but anywhere he's standing is OK.
He does have runny stools, so if I can get a sample, I'll get that checked tomorrow. He still won't eat dry food. And he's getting to be a biter.


Now what? I need to address the LB issues big time. I'm thinking my best bet would be to bring home another kitten to foster along with him so he learns to eat dry food, use the LB, & not bite from the other kitten?

I mean, I'm exposing Figgy & the other kitten to each other & it's unknown what they've got. I'm petrified they could have distemper. I know they're all FeLV- at least.

He is adorable! Is he contained in a small area? Being a baby, and having potty issues, being close to the litterbox all the time will help a lot.

I would check with the vet on putting another kitten with him. Since he is showing signs of illness, I'd be afraid the other kitten would catch it! I hope its not distemper...we lost Garfield's brother to that, and Gar barely survived it himself!

I can't get him in to the vet today.
He is in a medium sized dog crate, with two litterboxes, too..... I'm worried about distemper, but I know there are some other kittens who are ill that really aught to be in foster care. Yes, I risk him getting sick, too......but....I dunno. I'll talk to the shelter president tonight.
