my kitten had issues for the last few days with loose poop and now switched to prescription dry, my concern he doesn't seem to have much energy, he eats and drink but not much but he sits all the time and looks sleepy kinda hunched over, could he be feeling something in his tummy? he had been on anti-biotic two times before, i'm planning on giving him probiotics, you think this will help?

Well, he could certainly use the probiotic after a course of antibiotic, need to replace the beneficial gut flora/fauna.
Perhaps discuss with your vet adding missing link, or similar supplement to his diet.


Hope he gets to feeling better.

Hunter, how old is your kitten? Can you call your vet and ask them for a recheck, tell them you are worried about your kitten and he doesn't seem to be getting better? I wouldn't diagnose him or supplement him with anything until you have a clear picture of what is wrong with him in the first place.
