  1. Hello there :)

    I have two 3 week old orphaned kittens I have been caring for. A while ago they both had diarrhea so I looked up online to see exactly why. I found out I was overfeeding them a little and read that diluting the Kitten Milk Replacer 1/3 with water may help get them back to normal poo

    One of the kittens is back to normal but the other one isn't. He had a sore butt for a while so I put some Neosporin on it and looks 100 times better now. The only problem is when I help him poop he really mews loud like it still hurts, but when he pees he's quiet. His poo isn't getting any more solid either, it's just slimey feeling and still a little yellow

    Any Suggestions?

  2. Have they been dewormed at all? Usually slimy poo to me is an indicator of worms. I'll ad some tags to the top of the page with a whole lot more information about poop - we love talking about poop here on the daily kitten.

  3. There will be more people on later in the day who can give you more advice on hand rearing kittens and poop. In the meanwhile, here are two very useful websites:
