Apollo's Been Having the Diarrhea POOP IS FINALLY FIRM FOR NOW! :)

When my Ming was a kitten, he did that. He had the runniest poo and gas, also! He outgrew it in about a month or two. I took him to the vet for a checkup and they said, like your vet, that he was very healthy because he played and was gaining wait. I would just wait a month before I started to worry. Still, I will send prayers up for Apollo, it can't hurt!

Thanks! It's just we've had him since Aug. 09 and he had the runs then and still is having the runs. I'm giving him the meds they gave him that's supposed to bulk him up but that's just not helping it seems, but I'll give it some time yet.

Thanks,
Melissa

The other thing I wanted to mention was Apollo seems to sleep a lot. I know cats sleep a lot but he really really sleeps, I know he plays hard but he sleeps a bit too much we think.

Just need someone to tell me their kitten has acted like this and it's ok. I'm just worried about him.

I would just keep an eye on him unless he takes a turn for the worse. If your vet says wait a month, they are not thinking anything dire is happening. In my experience, most kittens play hard and sleep hard. I'm hoping that is it. Like I said before, my vet looked at Ming and said some kittens develop diarrhea as a result of being introduced to new food or their systems adjusting to a new home. I hope that is what it is with Apollo. Sending that beautiful orange boy some kisses: Mwaah! Mwaah!
