Oscar has got a bit of Colitis according to the vet, and the vet thinks that it will be due to worms (and as his Mum had a bad case of worms when they were rescued and they never finished off his worming course at the Cats protection, this does make sense), so we've been giving them panacur for the past couple of days and will be giving their last dose today.
I was just wondering though if there's anything else I can supplement his diet to help? Someone suggested fibrous foods, but the obvious ones aren't in season in the UK at the moment so aren't too easy to find. His diarroah (spelling!) isn't too bad, but I'd like to give him something to make it more comfortable for him until he's better. Any suggestions would be much appreciated.
Also, if it is worms, will we be able to tell? I know that in dogs if they have worms, once they're wormed generally the worms come out in the faeces, but is that the case for kittens/cats? And if so, when can we expect to see that?
