Diarrhea in kitten
 

Kucing stray yang saya ambil last week, Neko-chan kena diarrhea teruk... dah pegi vet hari Selasa, doktor inject dia 2x (untuk demam dan cirit-birit).. Lepas tu bagi pil antiobiotik dan ubat minum putih.

Masalahnya, cirit-birit dia belum surut.. nampak macam bertambah teruk.. normal ke? How many days does will the medication take effect? ( Tak tau nak tanya sapa.. maybe will take a few days baru cirit-birit susut?? sebab ubat antibiotik tu nampaknya untuk 5 hari )..

{sick}{sick}{cry}{cry}

Sebelum ni Sherbet aje yang selalu kena cirit-birit,..tapi tak seteruk Neko-chan ni {cry2}{cry2}{cry}

Makanan dia : BW kibble, a few days ago ada bagi dia wetfood 2x.. tu aje.. impossible dia makan table food sebab dia ni still under kuarantin, dalam cage (sebab dia kena ringworm sebelum ni)... {sick}

Cirit birit amat bahaya especially if the cat tak lalu makan/minum ... can get dehydrated very quickly, go into shock and die!

Kalau cirit-birit, DO NOT give dry kibbles ... wet can food pun kurang elok sebab dia punya digestive system dah kelam-kabut ... biasanya utk yg beragama Islam, vet akan recommend bagi daging ayam kukus sahaja sehingga poo dia elok balik ... utk yg bukan Islam, the cat will be given the Hills' veterinary I/D diet (stands for Intestinal Diet, a special diet for cats having diarrhea ... it contains easy to digest protein which help the upset digestive system to recover).

Normal dry kibbles contains too high fat content and canned wet food too much sodiium, among other thing.

Quickly check whether the cat is dehydrated ... mild or severe (tarik scruff dia dan tengok whether the skin goes down very slowly, slow or biasa). Kalau tak tahu mcm mana is keadaan normal, tarik kulit scruff kucing lain dan lihat how fast the skin goes back down.

Kalau sudah dehydrated, kasi dia air sedikit using syringe from the side of the mouth into the cheek pouch and also the head is not tegak to prevent the liquid from entering the lungs bila dia sedut udara as this will cause a lung infection which is serious!

Normally, Euanna, if the cat enggan makan and is having diarrhea and dehydrated, I will rush the cat to the medical centre (not a normal clinic) to be hospitalised so that the cat can be put on the drip (IV) immediately.

I may be wrong but kemungkinan besar Neko-chan is very stressed with her illness and all the medication yg tiba-tiba diberi sekali gus put a big toll on her digestive system, poor cayang ...

Kalau dia tak selera makan, mash the steamed/lightly boiled chicken is a little warm water. Squeeze out the juice from the chicken and remove it for another cat to eat. Use a syringe and suck up the kuah ayam pekat and kasi Neko-chan slowly from the side of the mouth (bukan dari depan dan jangan tegakkan kepala dia ... masuk paru-paru nanti!) and give the liquid very, very slowly, giving her time to swallow bit by bit. Remember, be very slow and careful not to get the liquid into the lungs and cause infection!

Semalam dia tak lalu makan..tapi hari ni lain ceritanya.. dia makan.. lepas tu akan cirit-birit keluar balik apa yang dia makan... Nampaknya dia dehydrated.. tarik scruff dia.. lambat turun.. tengok air dalam bowl dia tak luak..

Apa yang menakutkan.. dia poo tak boleh control nampaknya... tak sempat ke litterbox {cry}{cry}{cry}

Saya torn antara nak bawak dia balik jumpa vet....... atau tunggu a few days untuk pil antibiotik dia bertindak balas... {sick}{sick}

Ades!!! Yan,akak baru baca thread ni.mcm mana dgn Maneko?? ada perubahan tak??

Re: Diarrhea in kitten
 

Tadi pagi pergi vet cheras lagi.. dia kena masuk air (IV drip).. sebab dehydrated sikit... doktor inject lagi..lepas tu bagi ubat antibiotik yang lebih kuat dari haritu .. dengan makanan khas untuk cirit-birit..
Lagipun saya pergi bawak sample poop...so doktor nampak betapa seriusnya sakit dia...

Tengah monitor dia lagi..tapi tadi balik dari vet dia dah mengiao kuat sikit..which means dia dah bertenaga sikit... nanti petang sikit baru bagi ubat sebab semalam bg ubat antibiotik pkl 3 pagi.. (doc suruh stop ubat antibiotik yang sebelum ni.. makan ubat yg baru bagi tadi..)

Harap2 dia bertambah ok..{good}

kesian maneko {cry2} one after another sakit dia.ada doktor kata punca dia cirit birit??

Re: Diarrhea in kitten
 

Doktor kata mungkin virus..sebab dia ni stray.. tengok dia macam mana nanti..kesian betul semalam..sampai nak ke litterbox pun tak sempat... {cry}{cry}

Re: Diarrhea in kitten
 

Diarrhea Neko-chan tak seteruk last week.. tapi stool dia still very watery (tak firm langsung)... Ubat dia still ada lagi.. (pill sampai Isnin.. ubat liquid.. banyak lagi).. Tapi kibble yang vet bagi dah nak habis... (rasanya vet bagi dia Hill's I/D.. sebab doktor ada sebut bagi kibble I/D ..dan google tgk betuknya pun memang exactly the same)..

Masalahnya kibble ni dari vet aje... (saya pegi hosp vet cheras haritu) ..so.. macam mana yer? Boleh bagi dia makan Blackwood ke? atau ada cadangan makanan lain untuk upset stomach macam Neko-chan ni?
