Hello!

We recently found an abandoned kitten (initially estimated to be about 2 weeks by vet and now about 3.5). We’ve had him for over a week and he has had diarrhea consistently. He is on the KMR liquid formula. His fecal sample came back unremarkable. He was put on 0.15 ml of panacur for 5 days. That seemed to firm him up a bit short term. The good news is he is gaining weight, eats well, and is active; however, his bottom is getting very irritated (using vaseline), he is very uncomfortable when being stimulated (specifically to poop), and we worry about his overall health. Any recommendations?

Thank you!

Change formula to either KMR in powder or goats milk. Or...

Give some pedialyte or other salt source to compensate for salt losses...
