Wow poor little thing....I'd be miserable if I were here. I would call the
vet to let him know what's going on and see if there is a med you can give
her for the diarrhea or if she has a stomach virus. I can't offer much help,
but I think calling the vet and explaining to him that she is still having
the diarrhea is a good idea. Let us know what happens.

Kitty Problems:

We have a 9 month old, female cat. She is ½ Siamese and short haired.
She was fixed a few months ago. She was originally a stray but is
has been an indoor cat since she was very young. She looks very
healthy, is energetic, and has an extremely good appetite.

She has had a diarrhea problem as long as we have had her (7 months).
She was de-wormed at the vet when she was a kitten and they vet ran
all of the normal tests for parasites which all came back negative.
We feed her Wellness cat food but have tried other foods with no luck.
Recently this problem as gotten worse and she has started having
?accidents? on the floor. Usually we find a ?deposit? in the corner
of our basement. The litter box is located on the other side of the
room. Does anyone know why a cat who never has had problems not using
the litter box would decide to go on the floor when she has a diarrhea
problem? She has only had these accidents when the problem is at its
worse. The litter box is cleaned daily. One thing we?ve noticed
with her is she has very bad gas.

We have another slightly older cat that has no similar problems. The
two cats get along well.

We took her back to the vet last week and they ran all of the normal
tests again. She tested negative again for parasites or worms but
they put her on Panacur to make sure. After the Panacur treatment,
the problem still persists. She had an accident again last night.

Has anyone run into similar symptoms with their cat? She seems and
acts very healthy but I?m worried that this may be a symptom of a
larger problem. Also having never ending diarrhea is not healthy.

Thank you for the help.

Brian

The kitten should have two boxes firstly. When they have diarrhea, sometimes
it is painful and they associate the pain with the litter box. The diarrhea
may be food related. You may want to change her over to a different food for
cats with sensitive stomachs. Also, it could be indicative of an underlying
problem. All of these things must be ruled out by the vet.

What does she eat? Dry or wet food? Wet food usually helps with gas and
indigestion, but she may need to go on a different diet. I would suspect
food sensitivities.
