kittys poorly sick. what could it be?

[VTJess03]

Maybe this is a stupid question, but have you kept the new kitten isolated from the one you already had?

[jelliod]

no thats a good point actually. they just roam about and play with each other.

the other kitten has had her shots n stuff and seems ok. she's also about 10 months older. do u think that would make a ddifference?

Sounds like it might be the food. What is it you are supposed to feed her?

Your older cat could be ok with the expensive food too.

You can call around several vets and see if the food is available cheaper elsewhere.

Glad to hear the wee one is at the vet. I was think it sounded a bit hypoglycemic. Please keep us posted!!!

If it were something contagious, it could make a difference; the difference between one sick cat and two sick cats. I wouldn't want to clean up after one, and two would be twice as bad if there's vomit and feces everywhere with just the one. Did you ask the vet if it was something the other cat could catch from coming in contact with all this 'icky'? I would keep a very close eye on the other cat to catch any symptoms of infection early on so it doesn't go untreated too long.

It's probably like a family when a kid brings home an infection from school; sometimes the other family members will catch it, and sometimes they won't, depending on what type of bacteria/virus it is.

Welcome to PT. I hope that your kitten will feel better soon. I'm glad that you took her to the vet. Please continue to keep us updated about her.

We'd also love to see some pictures of both of your furkids.
