Hello TCS!

Hello TCS members!

My name is Julia and I'm a proud owner of two brown tabby kitties that me and my husband recently adopted.
My 5 months old baby girl Abby (aka Westminster Abbey) is our playful Princess of Mischief and our 3.5 months old baby boy Chase (aka Chase Manhattan) is an adorable loving Prince of Purrsia

We just moved recently to South Florida and decided to start our little family.

Our first adoption was very successful and our Abby is perfectly healthy however our new baby Chase has persistent diarrhea and was diagnosed with Giardia parasitic infection. We keep him isolated (him and Abby didn't even meet yet) and sanitize our hands and clothes.

I wanted to ask if anyone has experience treating their cats for this infection? How long did it take and was it successful?

Thank you.

As I understand this is an introductory post, so I'll ask this question with more detail in cat health forum

Much love

Julia

  Hi and welcome to the site.  I hope your little boy Chase gets well soon and recovers from his nasty infection, and that everyone else in your household stays well.  May your babies get to meet each other soon and enjoy each other's company as well as playing and snuggling up with their human parents.

I have already put a posts in one of your other threads, with a link to some advice which I hope you wil find helps.  Adopting a young fur family is such a precious time and it is so sad that this second kitten has been unwell.  My fingers are crossed and sending lots of postive vibes that we soon start to hear fun posts of your babies as they start to take over your home and get to know each other.  

Welcome to TCS, sorry you are dealing with Giardia.  I haven't ever dealt with it but I work for a vet, most of time the diarrhea subsides within a week. 

Thank you so much for the warm welcome and the vibes

I'm on the disinfecting the house mission now. Hopefully it will be ok in a week or two

Love

Julia
