My Yoda (non-felv) as a baby had a lot of that intermittent diarrhea as a baby
(the archives are peppered with my Yoda diarrhea emails!). I got so
frustrated- trying everything- and unlike you, I had a stupid doc that just
said, oh we didn't find anything in the fecal-- and I was like, well, you
probably won't, so we just have to treat the symptoms! Ugh, sucked. Since I
have done holistic care before I consulted with my holistic vet and she said
try "wrm clear"- not sure how it's spelled on the bottle, but it's called worm
clear. It's a holistic treatment- natural. She said it naturally clears
worms, bacteria and can even work on coccidia and things like that. She said
it also just generally helps the gut get back in order- balances out the good
and bad bacteria. I used it on him for the 14 day course of treatment (there's
also directions for a "maintenance" dose). The directions are a little funny-
it talks about adding it to water, or deliverying into the mouth and after
talking to her about it, I went with the 3 doses a day in the mouth so that I
was sure he was getting it all. Comes in a bottle like a liquid eye med (don't
get them confused!). It really worked on him honestly. It was weird b/c I
couldn't ever get anything diagnosed, other than me thinking that he has a more
fragile gastro tract b/c of his super rough start in life. It does act up
sometimes- like when I switched him from Wellness canned to Eagle Pack canned
(oh lordy, that was HELL! For everyone!)-- but I was really impressed with the
wrm clear that first time I did the 14 day treatment on him. Nothing else had
worked!
It's definitely worth a try b/c unlike an actual medication, it won't do any
harm-- it only helps! I got some bottles from my holistic vet, but I have also
seen it online at the pet supply places.
Hope this helps.
