One my my rescue/foster kittens just got diagnosed with Giardia!!
She had been having bad diarrhea for a while. She also just started losing her energy and was eating less. I took her to the vet 2 times (I work with a rescue, this is the clinic the rescue just left due to conflict with the vet, but the rescue was still sending fosters there) and both times she was sent home that day...once with Panacur and once with nothing. They didn't tell me what was going on with her and I was shocked they never gave her any SC fluids or kept her overnight (she is under 1 pound and very dehydrated due to the diarrhea). So today the rescue took her to their current clinic and diagnosed her with Giardia, and have her on fluids and will prob keep her the whole weekend! I am so relieved she is at a hospital getting treatment but am worried about her! (I just lost a kitten on Sunday and am so scared to lose another
!). Please pray for her!!
