Sick Kittens?

It’s great they’ve been vaccinated already and wormed too but some parasites and stubborn little fellas and some kittens need multiple worming doses .. Once it’s been 4 weeks since worming I would get another dose from the vet..

Some of the most persistent parisites will only show when stool is tested.. So if this persist a long time after secon worming ( normal to have loose stool up to a week after worming) then you made need to take a stool sample to vet so a more direct treatment can be given depending on the type of parisites that might be present.

Also I wouldnt fast them.. Not this young but give them boiled chicken for a few days it’s normally recommended to give a bland food with upset tummies and boiled chicken is best.. Make aure to keep them hydrated while they have diarrhea so add water to their food bowl while they eat even if it’s only a few spoons of water..

Ah yes I know all to well the fussy kitten syndrome 🙂

I would seek a second opinion especially if you’ve done everything advised by your vet … For the two of them to be out of sorts at the same time would indicate a parasite or a virus to be present..

Have you been changing their food a lot? Or have they been kept on the same brand? Sometimes even the smallest change in food or food brand can cause persistent diarrhea ..

I did have a case with my Nutini that she had diarrhea for over a month! But we knew the cause of this see she had a very close call after she was spayed and was prescribed some seriously strong antibiotics which not only killed the bad bacteria causing the infection but as expected also killed the good bacteria in her gut .. It’s was horrible and took FOREVER to clear up but it so eventually..

I’m wondering if it might be worth giving them a small amount of goats milk natural yogurt this would have good bacteria and help the colon bacteria to thrive just incase there is an imbalance there that would cause pretty bad diarrhea if they are lacking in good gut bacteria which is essential in producing healthy stool..

Keep in mind that kittens have sensitive tummies. Any rapid change of food can upset them. If you are trying to switch them from one food to another, you do it slowly by mixing small amounts of the new food in with the old food. Increase the ratio of new to old every day. It should take about a week to completely switch over. The only time you would want to just change foods overnight is if your babies are allergic to the food they have been eating or when there is a recall on pet food.

You might also try giving them a bit of plain canned pumpkin, not pie mix with spices.

I don’t know about goats’ milk yoghurt but you can get canned goats’ milk in the baking aisle at big supermarkets.

Do you know this store looks like they stock goats milk products I’ve messaged them through FB so if they get back to me I’ll let you know if they have the yogurt..
