I'm assuming ID has rice in it already. Rice is the only thing I can think of when it comes to 'bland' food for diarrhea purposes. Maybe ask the vet about mushing up more rice and mixing with the ID to make it blander till the diarrhea stops?
I'm making wild guesses here. I really have no clue. Also I don't know about what you're using for his bottom, but I think vaseline is the easiest on them. I know my sister's baby acts like desitin stings......
Is he drinking on his own? through the tube? on fluids? Fluids might help perk him up with the electrolytes.
Are you 'watering down' the ID for tube feeding? Maybe mix that with pedialyte for the electrolytes, etc...instead of regular water. Could be easier on his stomach and help perk him up?
Again............. no clue........ just the only ideas I can
come up with.
Take care both of you. Fingers crossed on that bloodwork!

Hi Tonya,
Yes I have changed his diet to ID it is for sensitive tummies and so
far so good, no diarrhea since Thursday night. Now if his bottom will
heal and he wouls perk up a bit. We went to the vet and they couldn't
get any blood from his legs, so they had to use his jugular. My vet
said he is pretty strong still for a kitty so weak at home. I will have
the results tomorrow sometime and of course I'm hoping it will be good
news.
