Diarrhoea


Dylan had a bit of diarrhoea yesterday evening when he came in (he'd been eating someone else's food we think), he went out this morning when dylanstroker went out to work and I tihkn he had another touch of diarrhoea while he was out (smelt like he had anyway)

I got him a small container of cat milk the other day, I'm just wondering if it would be OK for him to have a little drop yet or whether to wait until we know his diarrhoea has cleared?

He hasn't been out since he came in about 9:00 and he's not had any more diarrhoea.

Poor Dylan - if he's drinking water, I wouldn't worry about the cat milk at all; if he's not, then maybe a little cat milk 50:50 with water just to encourage him to take fluids?

He's had a drink, he was very willing to have some. He's sleeping just now, I'll see if he fancies any cat milk and water when he wakes up. He's having a little dream, twitching his whiskers and paws.

Re: Diarrhoea


If he's drinking properly then I wouldn't worry about him being dehydrated. You might want to give him some fish or chicken when he's teady to eat .... bland food.
