Runt w/ Defective Intestines

Forgive me if this has already been suggested. There is another
perscription food (wet and dry) that works well. I am afraid I don't
recall the brand, but the labeling is "low residue." It is labeled for
adults but is fine for kittens in the short term. We use it a lot during
kitten season, when little guys come to us with their guts all beaten up
from parasites and diet change.

Iams?

Also, I should have specified, the little bugger (who is currently sitting
on my lap with a dirty nose, he's a slob) is now about 1 1/2 years old.

Thanks!

Yes, Eukunuba(sp?), actually. They have a number of perscription foods
available these day.

Funny! Your little guy sounds like some of the youngsters we get, in our
rescue work.

What helps with runny eyes/noses sometimes is L-lysine, which can be
bought over the counter (we get ours at Costco). We have a herpes guy
(Googly) who gets his L-lysine every day, crushed and put into a gelatin
capsule. Works well powdered and sprinkled over wet food as well. (Googly
just got tired of it that way, unfortunately.)
