Much better, thanks. Mia got some medicine on Mon, which she hates, but we only have to do one more dose. Her butt has been clean for a few days. Oh what a difference a week makes. I was up to my elbows in poop a week ago and going crazy with worry. I don't miss it. Thanks for asking.

Gave Mia her medicine. She spat it out, and Grendel ate it. Cats are gross but not wasteful. So far so good with the butts. *fingers crossed*

I'm in the middle of a 4h class now. I'm afraid when I get home I'll find Mia covered in poo and my furniture as well. They go a few times in the evening. Ugh. It's going to be disgusting.

<p>I've tried giving them meat in the past and rice, separately. They really won't eat ANYTHING but kibble and a very specific flavor of wet food. They won't even eat other wet food, let alone something completely different like that. They don't even drink milk or eat tuna. They really only eat what they like. They went a whole day without a bite of food because I put rice in their food dish. I've tried all kinds of different things. Trust me, they won't eat it. </p>

<p>The medicine is liquid. She spat it on the floor. I'll try again though later. </p>

Did you try the rice with the warm ground meat? I'm saying a prayer for you that the medicine works - and you can get it in them. There's something called pill pockets that is really amazing for pills, even with fussy cats. (Although yours' may be fussier yet.) They are treats with a whole in one side that you can put a pill in. I get them at Total Pet for $5.

Talked the vet into giving her some medicine. Had to walk back because the syringe didn't load, eating up much of my afternoon before class. Mia spat up the medicine. I hope I can get it together and give it to her. Poor thing. Her butt is so messy. Grendel's butt was poopy again earlier, too. I can't wait until this passes. I hope it does soon and on its own.

I tried the rice diet. My cats ONLY eat kibble and a certain flavor of wet food. I can't get them to touch anything else. They went a whole day without food rather than try the rice. Grendel seems to be getting better except he puked, and Mia's still got the diarrhea. Ugh.

My friend &I have an animal shelter, so we run into this alot. Try boiling some ground chicken or turkey and mix with rice, adding some warm liquid from meat. You can also get something from Pet- Smart, $5 or 6, called KP anti-diarrheal med, good for diarrhea & upset stomach. There's another med called Kaolin, about the same. You can also use about 1/4 teaspoon Pepto Bismal a couple times a day. They probably have a little virus. My friend has cared for 100's and says the ground…

Just boil enough so it's not raw. Are they wormed? You could take a stool sample to vet. Let me know.
