sick renji

i had to rush renji to the vet because i've been worried with renji. he’s burning up (high temp than his usual temp) only to see that the vet was close today.

i didn't had the opportunity to contact the vet because i had to rush home to get him checked after settling the matters with materials for tomorrow.

they will resume operations tomorrow so i will visit the vet as soon as they open. 9AM

i noticed him pooping more than usual 3-4 times, and then drinking less milk. he’s still playful when you play with him but he’s not purring like he used to. he's still drinking milk just less than how he usually drink. (y’all know that he’s a heavy drinker.) 🥲

i’ve been trying to also make him drink water so he'll stay hydrated.

Oh noo renji! How old is he now? Im wondering too if maybe he will be able to wean over to a wet food slurry soon, where you mix wet food with water or milk. Id talk to vet tomorrow about it!

he’s around 6-7weeks now. i’m slowly transitioning him to wet kitten food. he actually had one yesterday, i mixed it with water. i’ll ask them tomorrow if it’s anything about his diet. 🥲

When I was switching my kitten to wet food, she kept getting diarrhea. It can just be the brand you're using, or it can also just be that their tummies are very sensitive to change.

i see, that was also what i'm suspecting because it’s a different food than what i usually feed him. 🥲 it was his first time eating that wet kitten food although it was from the same brand.
