Re: bella's baby -Waku update
It's a bacteria that's often not detected based on a single routine fecal culture. Here's a link from the Merck Vet Manual: The Merck Veterinary Manual -Campylobacteriosis: Introduction I've also used the Cornell Consultant web page many times to get ideas...you select the animal species in the drop down menu, then enter a symptom or symptoms in the search field & it will return a list of possible diagnoses.

RE: bella's baby -Waku update
I am wondering now - I gave Bellas Avalon (?)when she was pregnant as she had coccidia (I did not know that she was then), if it impacted her kittens during pregnancy.. as I said all of her kittens are skinney in general.. but Waku more so.. I am afraid that the drug did something to these babies before they were born?? -Original Message- From: TenHouseCats [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, June 07, 2006 6:53 PM To: Hideyo Yamamoto Subject: Re: bella's baby -Waku update well, that's why i'd ask the vet--but coccidia and other such stuff can really weaken kittens and could explain why she's not picking up weight. you might want to ask if they checked for trichomonas, which is the thing that jenn's been talking about--it's also hard to find if they're not looking for it specifically one of the more painful lessons i learned living in a sanctuary is just how frail kittens really are--no matter what you do, an awful lot of them just won't make it remember, you have NO idea about mom's health or genetic makeup, her prenatal nutrition etc--this little one just may not be strong enough...
