Took Layla to the vet a couple days ago and was told she had Giardia which explained the streaks of blood in her poop.
The vet said she proboaly got it from one of the other cats from the shelter.
I know that Giardia is a protozoa and comes from drinking stagnant water.
Anyways, prescribed Metronidazole and he wants me to switch from Science Diet to Iams. I found this odd since I've heard not so good things about Iams so I sought another opinion from a different vet who told me that I shouldn't switch the food since it will upset her tummy and that Science Diet is a better choice than Iams.
I haven't switched her food yet and I was wondering what your opinon is on
this.
Thanks in advance.
