I'm responsible for a litter of 6 kittens, but have someone else fostering them, and they have really bad diarrhea. We've had them almost 2 weeks and they've had it the entire time (and were having it in the home I got them from). They're about 13 weeks old, have tested negative for worms, FELV and FIV. They have been on Albon Plus since Sunday, and 2 of the kittens also got antibiotic injections to help the diarrhea (I didn't take all the kittens in to the vet, just 2 of them), but it doesn't seem to have done anything.
They are getting Purina Kitten Chow mixed with a higher quality kitten dry my friend had, and are now getting Chicken Soup for the Kitten Lovers Soul wet (they were getting a low quality adult tinned food) and small amounts of mashed pumpkin to try and help the stools form.
They are incredibly healthy and happy otherwise - they all play and wrestle like mad, then will come and snuggle in the closest lap once they're done.
I'm going to give it another day on the Albon, and if there's still no improvement, take them back to the vet.
Anyone have any suggestions on what else it could be, and what I could try?
