There are lots of good waterproof mattress pads. None of mine have an
issue but I use them anyway....they aren't the plastic crinkledy type
and are very comfortable.
Odo Ban is my favorite.

I have another problem that I need help with. One of my cats peed
on the bed yesterday, urine down to the matress.
I need some odor spray recommendations.
Also, does anybody recommend some kind of waterproof mattress pad
cover?

Were they dewormed? Shots are one thing but deworming is important
even if the test for worms is negative. Most kittens from street
moms or who have been abandoned have worms. Deworming is done
prophylactically by most rescue organizations.
Spay and Neuter your cats and dogs and your weird relatives and
nasty neighbors too!

It didn't work on the virus per say, but the fast growing bacteria
in their gut. I'm wondering if it could be a water change that is
making them sick?

Wonder how it worked on the virus, or does it work on viruses,

died), they wouldn't use ``controversial'' Tamiflu. My friend's
vet saved her litter that way.

Diarrhea control gel by van beek clears it right up if its
bacterial. I had a lot of cats years ago that had been dumped on me
and I could not catch them to vaccinate. Pretty soon they all
started dying, and it was panleuk. I had a bottle of excenel that I
had used on my Pygmy goat for mastitis. It wasn't labeled for cats
at that time but I knew it killed fast growing bacteria, like toxic
shock. Didn't think I had anything to lose so I started hitting
everyone up with it and it saved their lives! Fortunately the next
year in the Plumb Veterinary drug Handbook it was labeled for cats.
1 mg per lb. 50 mg per ML just in case you ever need it(-:

Thanks Kathryn & Christiane.
Both kittens just had diarrhea, no blood in the stool & no blood
in the vomit.
She is feeding them wet food, Friskies/wet and Meow Mix/wet. I
have tried to get the kittens to eat Before Grain wet food, but
they will not eat it. The kittens will lap up a little water, but
nothing excessive. Problem is, they walk away and vomit up the
water.
Kittens were eating good Wednesday, Thursday & Friday. I gave
them some dry food on Thursday or Friday night, Natures Variety
Instinct. Maybe their tummies just didn't like the new food.
I am very worried, the kittens go back to their home tomorrow AM.
The kittens have had the first round of shots & testing. I have
called their human parents twice and left two messages.

Subject: [Felvtalk] Kitten Sitting, need suggestion
I am kitten-sitting two kittens this weekend for a friend. The
kittens ate well for the first two days, but yesterday they turned
their nose up at food. Today neither kitten is eating and they
are both throwing up water. Yesterday one of the kittens had
diarrhea. Neither has done #2 today. Both kittens are playful,
drinking water and alert, but I am very worried about them not
eating. I have called their owner and left a message about the
vomiting.
The owner says that both kittens have been tested for "all
diseases". I have not let the kittens have contact with my 5
house-cats. Today one of my cats had some diarrhea, so I am
hoping that the kittens are not getting my cats sick..
Any suggestions? The kittens go back to their house tomorrow at
10:00am.
I am using Tidy Cats Pure Nature for their cat litter.
