I have read this forum thru and there are a few things I have a hard time finding an answer to.
1. How do you treat fleas, ear-scabies and worms on feral kittens?
- Without interrupting the socializing process.
- When kittens are still with mamas and mamas canâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]t be approached.
- When kittens are really young.
2. When is it time for vaccination and can they be vaccinated against Chlamydeous when they might already carry it?
Our kittens have had the worst kind of Chlamydeous attacking both eyes and lungs. They have had two different kind of antibiotics treatments and a third antibiotic in an eye solution. They also had the sneezing disease and had nose drips with antibiotics.
We saved all eyes, the pneumonia is gone and I havenâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]t heard sneezing in more than two weeks now. I am cooking special food for them to get their stomachs in order after the antibiotics. The diarrhoea is gone since a week and they are gaining weight now. But this really slowed down the socializing process, especially for two of the kittens.
They are de-wormed once.
I will ask somebody else to do the second de-worming so I donâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]t have to be the “bad guy†again.
Since I learned a lot from you I want to share what I have learned during the process.
-When having to treat smaller kittens with unpleasant medication it really helps the socializing process to always finish every treatment with giving them the bottle. Even if they donâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]t need it any more.
-When trying to pet a scared kitten it is good if they are a little sleepy and laying dark place where they feel safe. I rub my hands in catmint first and I made them both purr and fall a sleep while I am slowly striking them – even if they still are scared of me when they are on the floor.
-I am saving a lot of money by cooking for the cats and after studying the subject carefully, from a nutrition point of view, I have developed a few recipes that really work for loose stomachs and skinny cats. Do you want them and where should I publish them if so?
