Update; a trip to the vet yesterday and 2 tiny kitty enemas later, poop blockage issue mostly solved. The faster-developing kitten is pooping just fine now but the slower developing kitten seems to be plugged again. I asked the vet if I can use the milk of magnesia if constipation occurs again...

Ten days ago, someone dumped 2 tiny unweaned kittens outside my front gate. They were cold and wet and very hungry. I had nothing in the house to even make an emergency formula for them, so I used diluted cow's milk. They survived the night. The following day, I was able to purchase a milk...

I might another "problem" here. She simply does not have the concept of using a litter box. Her preferred place is under the bed in the room where she is currently living. I have tried on several occasions to put her in the box when I see the poop coming out, but she has not equated pooping a...

It was 7 days ago Dr. Jeff

In terms of poop, it is sometimes somewhat formed, but mostly very runny and lots of it! I am wondering if I should give another dose or look at something else instead. It was Phos 200C I gave her.

Hi Dr Jeff, the little kitty's beam, overall is good. She is friendly, curious, playful and really active. At 4:00 am I can hear her chasing her little plastic ball around that has a bell inside. She eats like a horse. So, in a nutshell, Behaviour: good, Energy: lots of it Appetite: excellent...

Thank you Dr. C. I used to be able to find raw goat's milk in the specialty store here, but since supply chains have been seriously disrupted over the last year, I can no longer find it. I think you had mentioned the Mitomax before and I will look for that here. Haven't tried the manzanilla tea...

Thank you Ginny, I will see if I can find the bentonite clay here.

I recently adopted a little stray kitten found on the doorsteps of the vet clinic where I volunteer. She is barely 2 months old and very tiny, but she is a major pooping machine! I had discussed her with Dr Christina last week and she gave me some good information as well as suggesting a dose of...

Hi Aruna and Dr Jean. Sorry for my slow response. Income Tax prep has consumed my time for the past several days! Other than her currently picky appetite, Luna appears to be feeling ok (she was chasing flies earlier today) Luna's BEAM is really unchanged. She is somewhat shy by nature and always...

Hi there, my senior kitty, Luna (age 15) is less and less interested in food each day. She has become so fussy, all she wants to eat are crappy kitty treats and butter. Not exactly a wholesome diet! What can I do to stimulate her diet? She is not a chicken fan, and when she does decide to eat...

Last week, when my kitty Piper has her swollen ear problem, with the help of Dr. Jeff and Dr. Sara, I able to more clearly define Piper's symptoms, turn these symptoms into rubrics and find the remedy I needed.. . . Sulphur! I chuckled to myself because when I was attending the Homopeathic...

Piper was ok with the Arnica and I have not had to give her anything else just yet. However, adding more rubrics to the repertory for her, Sulph still seems to lead, so that is what I am going to do next. Knowing that the underlying condition is probably the trigger for the hematoma, (thanks Dr...

Thank you Dr Jeff and Sr Sara for your input. If only there was such a thing as a Homeopathic vet here in Merida Mexico, but alas, that is not the case. Piper had her ear lanced at the vet clinic this morning and the haematoma drained. A few stitches were put in to close the small incision and I...

My kitty Piper (6 years of age) has been vigorously scratching her right ear. Yesterday, the ear flap (pinna) was swollen and hot to the touch. Looks like an aural hematoma, which, on examination by the vet is correct. The underlying cause is a fungal infection and the hematoma is the result of...

My friend Jorge (who is also my furry kids' vet) would but not the person who has taken charge of the little kitty's situation. I really do have my concerns for him and I hope he will be ok.

Thank you for this information Dr Jeff. It is very helpful. It would seem however, someone has stepped forward to undertake his care. This person is a vet, so I hope she can help him. Despite my large furry family, yes, the kitty would have had his own space in a quiet location. I told Jorge...

Two weeks ago at the vet clinic, a lady brought in a little street cat with about 3 inches of his colon protruding from his anus. The protrusion could not be manually put back in, so the vet performed surgery to pull the colon back into the abdominal cavity and attached the colon to the...

Hi Dr. J. I gave Andy one dose of Merc 30C 7 days ago. Andy is marginally more friendly, which, when one considers his normal temperament, is some improvement, however, I feel he has plateaued. His open sores on his neck have disappeared and his hair is regrowing. However, he still pants when...

Thanks, Christie, but Andy is a lean, mean, fighting machine. He is indifferent to food, so I cannot motivate him that way
