I'm sorry you're going through this with Whisper. If it were me I would take
Whisper to another vet for a second opinion before I made a decision.

Probably true, but you could get copies of all the tests your vet has run and
avoid repeating at least a few of them. I don't know. With what I've been
going through with changing vets I'm appalled at how different they are in how
they approach things.
For example my old vet said bloodwo
Yes, if you go this route ask for a full thyroid panel. There is a 'basic'
test. I don't remember which one.. which can come out negative when
your cat really does have a thyroid problem.

Well, all diarrhea smells pretty bad. lol. As I said, I haven't had experience
with Giardia, but when I used to foster kittens I could tell the coccidia smell

Hi Caroline,
Did you ever get Yoda's fecal to a vet? In the meantime I know our shelter
used to cook rice in chicken broth and give it to kittens with diarrhea. They
said it helped. I don't know if it really did or not, but I used to cook it
and take it to them. You might also try keep

I have heard not to test for fiv less than 6 months. You can test for felv any
time, And at anytime they could have just been exposed and may test negative in
3-6 months after exposure. That's at any age, although positive kittens who
had a known positive mother are less likely to throw the vi
Hi all,
Okay, here is the deal:
I rescued a mama with 5 kittens (4 weeks old) at a kill shelter.
One of the kittens doesn't look so good seems a little lethargic and seen
some runny poop on it's butt.
Others are doing well and eating.
I've only had these kittens and mom for 2 days.

Whenever I take in another cat/kitten, I take him/her/them directly to my vet
prior to them even coming home. Sounds like this little guy/gal needs to see
your vet ASAP.

Do you live where there are emergency clinics? Many's the time I've had to use
one of them--fortunately there are quite a few around here. If not, almost all
vets have after-hours number so you can call your clinic and talk to whomever
has weekend duty.
Or you could try the nearest PetSmart i
FreeT4 is the test you want to do if there is any possibility of the T4
being incorrect. Fred's T4 was normal but his FreeT4 showed he was in
the early stages of hyperthyroid, so we caught it early and he only

Can you syringe pedialyte?
I am NOT a kitten expert by any means...agree with ER suggestion but also
suggesting fluids to keep the kitten hydrated since diarrhea is

Thanks for the link - I will definitely check it out. I am also hooked up with
