I Need Advice, Quick


I went away for the weekend and the kittens got out on Saturday. My friend got them back in the pin but I think that Jinx and Sassy got into something, but I have no idea what. They have not eaten anything except for the first meal that I gave them when I got home Sunday night. And Jinx just threw up but made this aweful meow before anything came up. But their activity levels have not changed any at all.

It might be an idea to ring the vet and see what they say. It depend on how old the kittens are.

Re: I Need Advice, Quick


I would imagine they would take emergencies as most vets do. espesically since the kittens are so young.

If not are there any other vet in the area that you could take them to. It wouldn't be ideal but might be worth thinking about.

If they are fine in themselves, bright, alert, playing, with no sign of the third eyelid showing or dehydration then I would starve them for 24 hours and keep an eye on them. Make sure they have plenty of access to fresh water and then if no further vomiting introduce food slowly back into their diet, possibly with something quite bland like steamed white fish and rice. Do let us know how they go x

I talked to Jess, and she took the kittens to the vet. The vet thinks that they may have gotten into something that may have thrown their systems out of wack. Because their exams came out fine. She has them on a bland diet for a few days.

She will post later when she gets on and update everyone.
