I have posted about our kittens problems and wanted to get some advice on the meds she is on.
Our kitten was placed on Metro and was doing well on her first round for the five days and then went back to runny poop. After a few days without, the doctor had a fecal done and she went back on it for 5 days. They found thousands of bacteria in her stomach and extended her time on it from 5 to 10 days. We are on day 9 and she isn't back to normal with regular poops. She had the extremely detailed poop sample taken and they checked her for numerous things and found she has tested negative for most things except the bacteria issue in her stomach.
Two days ago, our other kitten who had normal poops started back to bad poop again and now they are both on it. The vet said that she will need a blood test if she is not recovered by tomorrow with the poop.
Has anyone had this issue before? Has anyone had issues with the second round of metro not taking? I'm getting really worried has we have done numerous tests but are getting basic answers and then no results. Her poop has improved but its still super soft and mushy. I'm at my wits end because its been over a month and a half.
I really don't want to go to another vet and rack up more bills but IDK what to do. They are on venison diet and have been since the doctor said the diet isn't the problem. They are also on fortiflora.
I'm worried if we should keep going with the metro but I don't want her to get worse because our other kitten is now on meds and she is about to stop. IM LOSING MY MIND!!
