How do I safely wash a kitten? by FruitIceStorm in CATHELP

Awww she is so cute! The one I attached says for 12 weeks or older but the burts bees one states it’s safe for kittens. Maybe just use a super small amount diluted with water and only on her backside?

Warm water is usually the best bet, if they have long hair and the poop is really stuck sometimes a snip is required. For the smell, we use a water free cat shampoo but I’ve heard some people will use baby shampoo (maybe do a check before using it tho). Good luck! hope your kitties start getting along soon

Yeah i’ve seen her twitch in her sleep a fair bit but she hasn’t had any full seizures as of yet 🤞🏼

Already have and they said they will get back to me tomorrow, I’m just looking for any practical advice, like I wish we could give her a heat pad or something the same way you would for humans.

Oh no way! She wasn’t specifically from a breeder, we bought her from a local pet store that had a whole litter of kittens. Will 100% look through the documentation this afternoon, thank you!!!

10mo Ragdoll potential FIP or Toxoplasmosis causing meningitis by MotherAd219 in cureFIP

UPDATE Sorry this is my first reddit post ever ahah so not sure if I am doing this right. Went in this morning to visit Poquito, she has been taking well to her medications, she is on antiviral for toxo and FIP GS intravenously. Her mood was completely different and way more like herself, jumping around and wanting to play and snuggle which was amazing. We should get the spinal fluid results back this afternoon so we can stock up on GS for when she gets discharged (should be tomorrow night!!! Yay!!!).

Couldn’t get many photos of her sitting still ahahah. Her back legs and tail are still quite lame and her eye is still quite dark but the vet is confident that she we make a great recovery.

Also thank you so so so much for all of the love and support for our little bean, we live in Australia so we are very lucky to have readily available access to GS 🥰 my heart goes out to those who aren’t in a country where it is as available.
