Hi guys! I am new to this site so hope I'm posting in the correct place. I adopted an 6-8 wk old kitten two weeks ago. His first night home he had some anal prolapsing. I took him to the vet were we have been constantly for 2 weeks. she put him on kitten formula which started the most watery diarrhea I've ever seen. Which has lasted well over a week now. Almost the full two weeks. 3 dewormings, antibiotics and steroids later, the poor little guy still has diarrhea. We put him on Sheba pate' food and I started yesterday introducing like, 10 pieces of dry food in with it. Well this morning he had his first formed poop since the first night I got him. I was so excited but an hr ago he pooped again and it was diarrhea. Again I've been reading about probiotics for gut health and digestion so I just ordered Nexabiotic 20 strain from Amazon for him. A few questions, does this sound like it will help settle his stomach? According to the vet he just has unexplained diarrhea as "some kittens just have and grow out of". And if this may help settle his tummy, how much of the pill do I give him? He's so little! 2 lbs. Thx in advance to anyone who tries to help me. I've been very discouraged trying to keep him clean and his bottom clean with all this diarrhea.
