I got knew foster kittens from the local human society. There are four of them. One of the kittens is clearly much older than the others and I am positive it is not part of this litter.
The 3 other kittens are in horrible condition..they are malnourished..there faces look like tiny skeletons with skin. There eyes look so bugged out.
I am feeding them KMR and they are lapping it up, I tried gruel also and they ate that to. They are eating so fast and begging for more.
They were so dirty and there hair was matted, I had to cut alot off after I gave them a bath. They got there first dose of Advantage plus.
Here is what I am concerned about, I can tell they are very gassy, I can hear it in there bellies, they have loose poop, but they are just going after feedings..not all the timie..I am sure that will harden up once they get use to eating again. There bellies are swollen...or maybe it is that they are full and there so skinny, that there bellies look huge. What can I do to help them with the gassy belly..I am sure they are uncomfotable...When I hold them and play a little I can smell them tooting. They were dewormed already to.
Any ideas?? I will post pics of these babies tomorrow!
