Hi all! Apollo is 13. He was healthy and strong 5 weeks ago. We rescued a kitten that had coccidia and, even though they were in separate rooms, he ended up catching it. We treated him and everyone in the house. The coccidia was gone but he still had diarrhea...for 4 weeks. I went from vet to vet...blood, x-rays, fecal, fecal, fecal...you name it. Nothing.... One doc put him on a special diet and the diarrhea stopped (1 week ago) but he is still losing weight and his hair. The thing is that I was so frustrated w/the meds not helping that I was giving him acidophilous at the time the diet started so I don't know which one took care of the diarrhea.
I just did blood again this morning to check the thyroid (maybe it did not show last time). The only thing my vet said today was that the liver felt a bit hard but nothing out of the ordinary.
Any suggestions are appreciated.
Thanks!
