Yes she is eating very well. Is it ever too early to give her a bath in the sink?
Also. There are some situation where a sort of washing off is necessary, and there are tricks to lessen the risks. (for example, if they are heavy flea infested).Yes she is eating very well. Is it ever too early to give her a bath in the sink?
Is that why you wanted to bathe her? Because she was soiled from diarrhea?Everything checked out ok at the vet today. They said use peroxide on her tummy along with neosporin. They also said use neosporin on her behind since its kinda raw from the diarrhea that he also said was normal since she is on formula and not solid food. Thanks for those who reply to my questions.
Ok, so I will describe the procedure, but I wil do it tomorrow, I shall go to bed now, very tired.Yes that was why. I found dawn and some cotton balls does the trick pretty well.
If she swallows actively, you can be rather liberal if she wants more. Overfeeding is a essentially a myth, as long as they swallow actively and get burped as they should.Just an update: Lily is eating and gaining weight like crazy. She opened her eyes fully tonight. Should I still measure her kmr or just feed her until she's full?
what happened to you explaining the procedure?
I see you got advices against constipation earlier in the tread. Some even written by me.Thank you I'll try that next time. What is something good to help un constipate her? The poops she's been having are pretty hard and a yellowish color.
I've been doing a lot of research since taking in a kitten that was born 6 days ago and I still can't help but worry about everything! Most recent worry is that her (at least I think) last poop started Brown but a little runny with a slight trace of blood then turned into a firmer stool almost like soft serve. We've been feeding her every 2-3 hours but last night she was only feed 2x's in 10 hrs. She never got her mom's milk but is slowly gaining weight. She started at 2.4 oz and is now up to 2.9 so about 0.1 per day. Is that normal also with how small she is? Any advice welcomed and thank you in advance. Her name is Lily and she thanks you too.
