Hi there,
I'm really sorry to hear your young kitty has been having such a long bout of diarrhea. I know how tough that can be for both of you. Diarrhea lasting more than a few months can be due to several factors, including food allergies, intolerances, parasites that might have been missed, or even inflammatory bowel disease.
You could try an elimination diet to see if a specific ingredient is affecting your cat’s tummy. Switching to a high-fiber diet or adding a little pureed pumpkin to their food can sometimes help firm things up. Ensure your cat is drinking plenty of water to prevent dehydration.
Keep an eye out for signs like lethargy, weight loss, or blood in the stool, as these could indicate a more serious issue needing urgent attention.
I know you’ve already been working with your vet, but it might be worth getting a second opinion or considering further diagnostic tests like a fecal culture or ultrasound to better understand what's happening.
Why not book a video consult with one of us here on Dial A Vet? We can dive deeper into your cat's history and symptoms and brainstorm a plan together.
Take care!

It was so easy, I needed some eye drops for my dog and thinking about going to the vet on a weekend made me nervous about the cost involved. Dial A Vet was a much simpler, cheaper option with faster results. Within 10 minutes of the call, I had the medicine I needed for my dog without an expensive consultation.
A great fast efficient service with a qualified vet who was lovely and helpful. Thank you Samantha. I was able to sort my dog at 6pm on a Sunday night for $49 - amazing. Highly recommend.

What an amazing service, at my wits end as I knew my beautiful dog had an ear infection, could not get into the vet for 4 days. Never knew there was vets online until I googled. Within 15 minutes on a Sunday I was taking to beautiful Samantha who diagnosed and treated our Jasper. Only $49. She trusted that we knew our boy and gave us lots of advice. I will definitely be using dial a vet every time and sharing with all my friends and family. Absolutely fantastic kind caring service. 11/10
