Hi all! I am posting for an acquitance that has taken in a pregnant stray kitty. Kitty has an URI along w what she decribed as voluminous "cowpie" sometimes explosive diarrhea, and also leaking diarrhea from anus. Alot of gurgling sounds in tummy as well.
She has taken her to a Vet and tested negative for Feleuk/FIV, received 1st round of Vax, and Vet diagnosed w "Rotten gut", which Im guessing is same as leaky gut, Started her on a probiotic sprinkled over food. (Sounds like Fortiflora to me)
This "foster" has limited info to give, Im trying to extract as much info from her in order to help her help kitty. Im waiting to here back from her to see if fecal, Ghiardia snap were done at Vet.
She is currently feeding her Abound Salmon and Brown Rice kibble.
Dr did not start any antibiotics due to pregnancy.
Hopefully my next post will have more info but I want to help her w food suggestions and any other suggestions to get the diarrhea under control.
Ive thought maybe a diet of boiled chicken and some pumpkin puree might help or maybe canned Fancy Feast kitten pates in turkey? Trying to get her away from any fish in the diet, but also concerned changing diet during pregnancy could make diarrhea worse. Ugh.
