I found my 3 month old kitten Jack in a parking lot about 2 weeks ago. Last Saturday we went and had his first round of kitten vaccines and dewormed. They said he seemed healthy.
He did fine after all of this for the first day or two, then Monday I noticed a decrease in the amount of food he was eating. He still ate, just not as much. I filled his bowl to the top on Monday and he just finished it this morning (Thursday). Also this morning he started having diarrhea. It started off as just soft, but now it’s completely liquid. He doesn’t seem to be having it often. Once before I went to work, once during the 8 hours I was gone, and then once after I got home, nearly 2 hours ago.
He has lost maybe .5 lb to 1 lb, he feels somewhat cooler than normal, and now the diarrhea. However, he still eats, he still runs and plays like usual (although today with the start of the diarrhea he was a little lethargic). I guess my question is, is this normal after shots and deworming? If so, is it normal for 5 days after shots and deworming? I’ve never had a kitten before, I have no idea what I’m doing here.
