Does anyone know if kittens can get colic?
I vaguely remember reading somewhere that they do.
As I have very limited time on the computer any help with info or a link or two would be very helpful.
I have a 9 day old kitten who has crying fits. I mean he screams for up to 45 minutes and there is no comforting him. I can tell he is in pain and the only thing that helps is to hold him in my hand and rub his back vigorously. He has had 2 of these instances in the past couple of days.
He seems fine otherwise. He is nursing, he has good color, and is well hydrated. He is also growing and his eyes are starting to open like his siblings. I also thought he might have gas or a tummy ache for some other reason. He isn't being rejected by his mom or siblings either. In fact his mom gets all upset when he acts like that and looks to us for help.
Thanks.
Love and Life,
Nan
