My poor kitty!
Sun, I took peanut back to the ER, got fluids, and a strong treatment of meds to wipe out all the wormies. He was lethargic (had a stressful day, too) and still lots of runny, squirty, (sorry) diahrrea. Called the vet early this morning, monday, and she told me to bring Peanut and his "brother" in for a look-see. They cannot figure out what is wrong with him! She has him on fluids, gave him a shot to help with diahrrea and is keeping him and Turbo (got them both at the same time, but Turbo just has very mild diahrrea) overnight for observation.
I hope they can treat him, even though I have only had them a week I absolutly love them! I even slept on the couch with them both sleeping on my chest because my hubby couldn't stand them crawling all over him (I love it!!). Anyway, I can't think of anything I did wrong - i used the same food as the vet, spent countless hours playing and hugging - and I don't know what is going on! I will keep you posted, thanks for asking. Hopefully I will know more tomorrow!

Ohhh Feleciac, this has nothing to do with anything you did (or didn't do) for your cats! You sound like you take excellent care of them. I sure hope they find out what is wrong, or that the problem gets better on it's own.

Yes, you are certainly doing your best. If the vet are not sure what it is you may want to see another vet for a second opinion (as if they can refer you to a specialist).

Please let us know how it goes (and please post as a reply to this thread - it makes it a lot easier to follow).
