So the adoptee kitten (probably around 8mths vet assessed age) has arrived yesterday.
He was feral for the first 6 months and has been in foster care for about 8 weeks.
He's been seen by the charity's vet and they did an FIV test about a week ago to be on the safe side as we already have a 4 month old male hooligan. He's chipped, vaccinated, neutered and up to date with flea and worming (I'm told, I have no paperwork because of charities cat issue).
He was meant to be dropped off yesterday and have our home assessment at the same time but due to car issues we were asked to collect him from the foster carer (we have already been before and met our adoptee).
We picked him up and as we were leaving we were told 'oh he has had runny poo's since his blood test. Thought you should know and he's not put on much weight the last couple of week' We've brought him home and he seems ok. He's very placid, and has tolerated existing hooligans deep suspicion of him very well.
He was ravenous and very thirsty when he arrived but that has slowed down now 24 hours later. He doesn't seem very lively, doesn't seem to know how to play but will allow himself to be petted and did snuggle up with us last night. He seems to have a little bit of dried crud to the outside of his eyes that he isn't grooming away.
But his bowels!!!! He has had 4 very soft (not liquid) poos in the litter tray that are pretty rank today. He seems to be passing a lot of urine too.
I'm being strict with both cats not sharing feeding bowls or litter trays.
He's booked to see the vet for a once over next week and they are now closed.
Am I being an over worried crazy cat lady or could he have something going on that needs attention?
