Taking antibiotics = feeling funky?

Poor Peanut.

It could be the medication or she's just feeling worse that day. You know how when we're sick sometimes we'll feel worse before better. I sure hope all is well with the little girl. Will watch for updates!

At our house liquid Clavamox caused diarreah (lightly runny poop). It works great within a few days you see good results towards recovery.

Get better Peanut.
Yes, our guys are sort of out of it after a dose of Clavamox. Our vet said to give it within 20-30 min of them eating something so it doesn't upset the tummy ( if that's worth anything in this case, I don't know)
Hope she feels better soon.

Thanks everybody. We're off to the vet this morning to exchange the liquid for the pill form. After I gave it to Peanut this morning, she promptly threw it right back up. She does seem to be feeling better as the litterbox obsession has eased.

Gotta go, will try to check back later.

Instead of the pill form, they gave me Amoxycillian (sp?) in the liquid form. Evidently they're averse to pills?

But the good news is I gave some to her as soon as we got back, and she hasn't thrown up yet, so I think this one will work better. She is still a little sleepier today than normal, but she's doing good and her little pee biscuits are getting bigger, so I think it's working - whew!
