I received two orphaned kittens from a friend three weeks ago. The kittens were only a few days old and both of them had serious cat flu, one hasn't been able to defecate last two weeks. He could eat, sleep and pee normally. He was taken to the vet and received enemas almost everyday. He was given lactulose with no shown improvement.
The vet said that it's quite possible that a section of the colon is enlarged so the poo goes in the extra space instead of going out. No surgery can be done before 6 months old so I'm quite frustrated. My husband and I both have to work full day and won't have much time to take him to the vet. Are there any other options or do I have to learn to do enema on him every night? Any suggestions would be of great help, thanks!
