My little 8 week old kitten had been through 3 major hernia surgeries 2 weeks ago he came back home day before yesterday i was giving him royal canin adult jelly food as prescribed by vet office now yesterday after one normal poop he started having soft stools now an hour before he had watery stool i hv reduced the amount of feed and i m giving him chicken soup as well
I hv called the vet office they said to add boil chicken and reduce amount of feed
I m little concerned as i hv searched on internet and found that only liquid diet should be given in first 24 hours to rest the stomach
Kindly guide me what to do
I need urgent help vet clinic is around 2 hours and my kitten is already very weak after surgeries but he is active and playful eat and drinks fine
Should i start giving pedi lite should i continue with jelly food i m very nervous

Diarrhea is not uncommon after surgery, and since he's such a little kitten it makes sense that the surgery would have tasked his body. What was he eating before the surgeries? Frequent food changes and sudden food changes can also upset a kitten's stomach.
