Albert going to the vets today...not sure what's up with his back

[Anikaca77]

Well everything was going fine when I posted...until yesterday he started having a lot of runny runny diahrea. Poor guy he must of gone at least 4 times yesterday.

The vet gave him Metronidazole Flagyl 250 mg which we are only giving him 1/2 a pill and it's just once a day. So Friday he got his first pill at the vets, Saturday and Sunday night. I called the vets this morning and I'm still waiting for a call back. Poor guy though I, he was doing semi-better before the vets, his stool was loose but not this loose.

I don't know if it was the Convenia shot or not or if it's these Met. pills.

I hate having to give my cats Metronidazole, it's so very bitter and you begin to wonder if the side effects aren't worse than the reason you are giving the med.

None of mine have ever had diarrhoea after the Convenia shot, though they have after some oral antibiotics.

Have you tried putting cooked pumpkin in his canned food as someone else suggested. It comes highly recommended.

I'm sorry you and Albert are having a rough time and hope he gets better soon.
