We have accidentally a 5 weeks old kitten

We live in the countryside and we were walking when we found the tiny one. I took her to the vet straightaway to get her checked. She has nasty diahorea but is quite bright otherwise. They gave me a deworming, a probiotic thingy...I try to give her kitty milk but she is not keen. She drinks water and some specialised food that I bought from the vet. I'm planning on offering food every 3 hours : milk-food-water...she is asleep on heating pad on low. What else can I do !? I'm really worried she is not drinking the milk :(

Awwww bless her. Hope she has a good sleep and starts to feel better.

user1477462353 · 01/12/2016 21:43

She is ok. A complete different kitten ! A healthier version !

And she's a few days older. They change very quickly at that age. Smile

cozietoesie · 01/12/2016 21:48

She's sure crammed a lot into just a few weeks on this Earth. Smile Maybe she'll have a rest now?

user1477462353 · 01/12/2016 22:51

She is full of beans and refuses to sleep ! Dh is doing the night shift !!

OK.

Or maybe not then! Grin

EstelleRoberts · 01/12/2016 23:03

Dying of cute here 😍

bialystockandbloom · 01/12/2016 23:36

Oh she is just divine - and how lovely you are OP for taking her in and looking after her so brilliantly Flowers Hope she goes from strength to strength.

not placemarking at all, nope

saffronwblue · 01/12/2016 23:45

Oh how lovely - hope you all have a fun night!

Whenever Little M goes to the vet, he's a bit rambunctious when he gets home. Older MCat slinks off and looks at me in an accusatory fashion.

So glad she's home. Smile

Ooh, had Giardia myself, after a trip around W. Africa. I believe it originates from a parasite that lives on snail eggs. Can recur, but the first time is the most explosive - was with me in any case.

Nice one getting her to the vet ASAP, their little bodies can dehydrate so quickly. Sounds like she's full on the road to recovery. Will you keep us posted? With photographs?

isadorable · 02/12/2016 00:12

I'm delighted to see her fluffiness back with you. Well done!

FuckityFucko · 02/12/2016 01:36

Absolutely gorgeous Grin

Gingernaut · 02/12/2016 02:12

They really have fluff dried her, haven't they?

You must be so relieved.

She's lucky to have you as her slaves. Grin

ElizaDontlittle · 02/12/2016 02:12

She is sooooo cute! Hooray, so glad she's home. Get well soon user and enjoy her!

twocockers thanks for the correction, useful to know.

iloveeverykindofcat · 02/12/2016 06:25

I had a good feeling about her. She's a fighter with a strong will to make it.
On another note:

SO SMAAAAAAAAALLL!

Congrats OP. She's in good hands.

QueenCuntyFlippers · 02/12/2016 06:51

Oh now she is well she hS a wicked gleam in her eye.

CremeBrulee · 02/12/2016 07:41

Oh OP she's going to be such a handful! She's gorgeous, her white collar of fur looks like an Elizabethan ruff, very queenly!

AwkwardSquad · 02/12/2016 08:00

Little fluff bomb. I hope you're looking forward to the 3am, 5am, 7am zoomies... Grin

My portly tabby girl still has 5am zoomies every so often, usually spent somersaults as she tries to catch her tail.

TimeIhadaNameChange · 02/12/2016 09:31

What a complete darling!

Maybe she'll sleep all day...? (Or maybe not!)

Sleep's overated anyway, especially when you're a wee little bundle of fluff heading off on a new adventure, with lots of exciting places to explore! She'll settle down eventually (in a few years!).

Have fun with her!

Meemolly · 02/12/2016 09:37

She is so beautiful!!! Enjoy!

user1477462353 · 02/12/2016 09:41
