I actually got some Consolidate Qi per your advice
How much should I be giving them per day? I was just doing 3 drops once per day, and it didn't seem to help much, but it doesn't sound like I was giving them enough. Boots is around 9 lbs and Bartholomew is around 12 lbs (kind of a guess since we haven't weighed him since his neuter and he was 11 lbs then).
Also, one of the other fosters bottle feeds kittens and has had two die in the past week. She didn't notice any diarrhea in either of them. One wasn't eating too well the day he passed, but the other was a complete surprise. I think they're around 4 weeks old. We have a ton of albon and panacur around, should we go ahead and give that to them as a preventative measure?
I tried giving Mew some Albon last night by putting it in his wet food. He normally isn't a picky eater, but he wouldn't touch it, lol. I guess it's the syringe, though I'm pretty terrified of trying to use that on him.
If it helps, I don't think she can maintain her body temperature on her own either. Apparently, she got down to 94 this morning, so they have her on heating blankets now, though that might have been because they have to fast them for the bile acid test. We don't get results until Tuesday, so it's going to be a tough couple of days. I don't even want to know what my balance is right now.
I'll let you all know when we hear anything.
Oh and just a bit of an update, Bartholomew is so freaking cute. When I stop petting him, he'll grab my hand. They're going up on the rescue's website soon, so keep your fingers crossed! Of course, I need to get rid of whatever they have before they can be adopted.
