My girlfriend and I recently adopted a 5 month old kitten, Lemon. A day or so after bringing her home she began sneezing and dry heaving a bit. This increased a lot and then included thick gooey build up on her eyes and nose, so we brought her to our vet. The vet gave her some antibiotics to clear up an infection. The antibiotics cleared up the eyes and nose but she still has the sneezing and hacking. But now when she sneezes and coughs she cannot control her bowel. Her feces just kind of pour out. She doesn't even seem to know it's happening because she often just sits in afterwards. Other than the mentioned problems she's fine, plays, sleeps and eats normally. We've taken her back to the vet and she suspects a stomach infection because her stool has been so loose.
My girlfriend's family runs a cat shelter and has cared for up to 70 cats and my family has had a handful throughout my life and we're all stumped.
We've tried pumpkin for her stomach.
Hairball paste and cat grass for the hacking.
steaming her up for the sneezing.
Changed her food (dry & wet)
anyone else ever dealt with something like this?
