Oh I forgot to reply to this, yes they have been dewormed, about 10 days agoThe big bellies were what worried me the most because they even struggle to walk after eating sometimes.
My worry about free feeding is the runt not getting enough food because her sister blocks her out sometimes.
I haven't started them on dry food because they reacted badly to eat a few days ago when I introduced it and had diarrhea, so I was holding until their gut situation is completely cleared.
I just don't understand if my runt is eating only wet food and drinking KMR, how come her poop is so hard?
Im feeding them powdered one, its all I could find.Are you feeding the liquid KMR or the powdered?
KMR powdered feeding instructions
KMR liquid feeding instructions
Kittens are little pigs so it's recommended to feed them as much as they will eat as often as they want. 3 or 4 canned food meals a day is typical but some kittens may want more meals. Kittens need a lot of food for growth. I don't think 5 week old kittens have strong enough jaws for dry food
I have another question. My ruby just peed on my bed (I’m guessing it’s becsuse it’s quite soft. When I noticed I removed her and she finished peeing on the floor. When I cleaned it up I realized it has almost no color and almost no smell, is that normal for young kittens ? I also notice that they pee more now that they are having KMR, is that also normal ?They do not need pedialyte right now.
I spoke to the vet on the phone and she said not to worry that almost odorless and colorless pee is what they aim for in small kittens.Kmr is giving extra fluid, in excess of what is in wet food. This means prob just they are well hydrated.
It could be some problem too maing them pee but its less common.
Now, here are two different principles re shortening down the prescibed serie of antibiotics.she believes the antibiotics are causing constipation
