Jennie is sick. Jennie NEVER gets sick. She ate fine this morning and ate her supper. But right before her supper she had diarrhea. And two hours after her supper she vomited it all up, and is still having some dry heaves.
It was only earlier today that I realized the new jar of salmon oil I opened for her two days ago is 1000 mg. I don't know how I made such a mistake. She only gets it every other day, but still. Going from 500 every other day to 1000 every other day...would that cause this? She had had two doses of the 1000 mg, two days a apart, the second dose being last night.
The only other explanation I can think of is I gave her some Soulistic today. The date on the can is fine, but I haven't fed this brand in a long time, and now I remember that they always seemed to have some diarrhea when I fed Soulistic, and that is probably why it never got used up. Why did I even keep it? Why couldn't I have remembered that before I fed it to her? Geesh. She only had about an ounce of it though. So I'm still thinking too much salmon oil.
Even as I am typing this she's down in the litter box having more diarrhea and vomiting a little foam. Poor girl, Jennie is never sick, I feel so bad for her.
Is there anything I can do for her? Give her fluids? Wait until morning to give her fluids? Give her a pepcid? Or just let her be for tonight and see how she is tomorrow?
If it is too much salmon oil, is she in any danger?
