A kitten has come to my home (6 -8 mos old). Very friendly boy, skinny. I made a vow of NO MORE outside cats. However, we have a barn, with hay and mice. My husband wants to let the kitty be a barn cat. I said ok, if he hangs around for a couple of weeks I will take him to the clinic for rabies, worming and basic shots.
He has been here 7 days and now he is sick. Thin, weak, not eating for the last 24 hrs. I saw his poo day before yesterday no diarrhea. No nasal or eye discharge, no coughing. His gums may be pale. Worms ?
I live in a small rural town. I ran up to Ingles and bought some over the counter wormer this morning and dosed him before work. The local vet is outrageously expensive and we have not clinics. I cant afford to spend $200 on this feral kitty. But I do want to help him. Any advise on how to keep him going until the wormer helps, if that is the problem.
