Taking antibiotics = feeling funky?

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!

We are praying as hard as we can for Peanut,and we pray that when she is home,your Vet can get to the bottom,of what is ailing one of the nicest Cats on Pet Talk!

I'm glad to hear that Peanuts peeing is getting better. Hopefully the new medicine will do the trick.

My new vets office will always give me antibiotics in the liquid form too but Storm had very bad diarrhea with it and it tends to be much messier so now I'm requesting it in pill form.
