Hi, I have a dsh cat, inigood health, vaccinated, wormed etc.
She gave birth to 3 kittens on 21/2/18,all went well and they were thriving. Just over a week ago when they were 3 1/2 weeks old over a couple of days I noticed two were growing really well but one tango looked way smaller in comparison , 3 days before this they were equal in size. It was a weekend vet closed so i got kmr from pet store and first tried taking bigger two away for periods and leaving small one to feed alone, Monday morning I weighed him he was 253 g, the day before was 274,took to vet and was told he looked healthy so no worries there but a bit dehydrated and underweight , advised to keep away from mum and feed kmr every 3-4hours.this went ok but after three days weight had dropped to 223g,and tummy was massive bloated, vet told me not to stimulates toilet to him as he should be doimg it himself but i think he couldn't and was why tummy was bloated, i have a cat who is nursing a litter of one she is an excellent mum so i put him with her two days ago she is caring for him well and his tummy has gone down perfect, she is feeding him, however he his still losing weight today is 217g. But he looks fine apart from small and weaker than his siblings, any advice would beappreciated
