I came back from vacation last night to find that the family cat had been locked in the basement for 10 days. I immediatly gave him water (not to much at first, didn't want to shock him), and later pedialyte. I gave him roughly an ounce per hour at first for most of the night. He's had probably 10oz of pedialyte as of this morning, and a small handful of cat-food.
He seems active and meows quite a bit. He doesn't seem very interested in dry cat-food yet, and he's starting to slow down on the liquids.
I'm worried about a sodium imbalance, or feeding him too quickly after his ordeal. Basically I need some general advice. Has anyone been here before?
