I just got 3 baby kittens about 4 weeks old. The women who was caring for them was not or didn't know what she was doing. When I got them they were loaded with fleas, had fecal matter matted in their fur and around thier puts that I actually had to shave some of it off. They are also extreamly underweight tho seem to have gained some in the 24 hours Ive had them.
They also have very watery diah and the one is pooping out this pastey white looking stuff. She was only feeding them twice a day on the bottle and said they were eating regular food but they arnt they looked at it with no intrest.
What I'm doing I brought them home and bathed them in baby shampoo so they are now defleaed. I've been feeding them formula every two hours and trying to see if they will eat some wet food (they do have teeth) I want them to get the nutrients they are prob lacking due to the women not feeding them enough. Im also giving them some nutracal for extra calories. They are using a litter box and active.
Question I have is how do I get the diah to stop. I've deluted the formula. The diah is liquid and it was tinged with a little blood but now its more watery with mucus. The one that was pooping the white the last stool was just watery. I had them to the vet and he said they are too little to give anything to and to just keep an eye on them. It could just be from changing foods or the formula was too rich.
Is there anything else I should be doing?
They are all grey one shorthair and two long hair all are males. Names are Einstien, Graham, and Franklin
Thanks in advance
