I just took Persil to the vet for a check following her surgery and because it was time to get her other shots, which were postponed while she was ill. Over the last few days I have noticed that her stools were loose, but I thought maybe this was because I am trying to get her to eat IAMS kitten food. However last night I saw that her motion had mucous and a faint pink tinge to it, so I took a faecal sample with me to the vet. He was non-committal, but is sending it to the lab for a parasite check. If she has something then I am sure the others probably have too, so I will try and check and grab samples before they bury them! What a nice job!
But I have been looking up the symptoms and it could be giardia, though there has been no vomiting yet. Anyone have any experience, or any other suggestions? I can't bear it that she might be sick again, though I am sure this is easily treatable. She is eating well and behaving normally in all other ways, and the vet says she seems OK in herself.
