Hi all,
I just got a new kitten of 10 weeks about half a week ago. He vomitted and had diarrhoea yesterday morning (prob due to overeating), didn't eat/drink or pee/poo the whole day, as well as being lethargic. I took him to the vets and they gave a broad spectrum antibiotic in case it was a stomach bug, as well as some electrolytes in powder form to mix with his water. The vet also recommended to give bland food such as cooked chicken.
Right after we got back, he ate a bit of his wet food and dry that was out previously. He didn't touch the chicken just yet. His energy came back towards the end of the night and so did his appetite!
Today, he has peed several times (I'm thinking due to the electrolyte water) and has been really hungry all day. I've given him small pieces of chicken (shredded) every couple hours and yet he keeps crying for more food. He however hasn't pooped since that diarrhoea yesterday morning so it's been almost 2 days now.
He's very active again like a normal kitten and everything only that he hasn't pooped. His stomach does feel full and he just wants to eat more and more! I don't know what to do cause he seems really hungry all the time but I don't wanna keep giving him as he hasn't passed anything for almost 2 Days! Help!
