My kitten had intussusception symptoms, now pooping. Is it still a risk?

I hate to hear Hope is still not fully recovered. Unfortunately, you need to know if there are any hair ties or other objects in his abdomen. Unless there is metal in the hair tie, it will not show up on the x-ray but the vet will look for gas distention in the intestines. I recommend to have him x-rayed or even look into an abdominal ultrasound which is more exact. Unfortunately, nothing is every guaranteed in medicine. If there are more objects in his intestines, these could cause a real problem. I hope this helps and that Hope continues to improve. Please feel free to post any additional questions.

There is a possibility that she may have soft stool for the rest of her life, but not diarrhea. This will depend on where the piece of intestine was resected. This is usually no problem. As for diet, I would always recommend a good quality canned kitten food, and later as an adult, a good quality canned cat food. That is one sweet kitty. Thanks for taking such good care of her!

There is nothing I would be worried about as the anus seems only mildly inflamed. Usually this is caused by softer feces/diarrhoea. I would recommend to start feeding with a bland diet based on boiled chicken and rice in small portion every 6 hours for the following 48hours. Then gradually reintroduce the normal diet over 5 days. I would definitively recommend a veterinary check up if the signs persist or you notice diarrhoea, vomiting, lethargy or inappetence.

That is nothing to be extremely worried about at this stage as it could be only related to diet. I would suggest to start feeding with a bland diet based on boiled chicken and rice in small portion every 6 hours for the following 48hours. Then gradually reintroduce the normal diet over 5 days. I would definitively recommend a veterinary check up if the signs persist or you notice diarrhoea, vomiting, lethargy or inappetence.

These type of feces are definitively not normal. As a first approach, I would suggest to start feeding with a bland diet based on boiled chicken and rice in small portion every 6 hours for the following 48hours. Then gradually reintroduce the normal diet over 5 days. I would definitively recommend a veterinary check up if the signs persist or you notice vomiting, lethargy or inappetence.

These signs may be compatible with a moderate to severe gastrointestinal inflammation/ infection. Dehydration can occur quite rapidly in kittens so a clinical examination at your local veterinarian is essential to confirm these clinical suspicions and treat appropriately. Antibiotics may be needed. Please do not hesitate to contact us again on the forum or by requesting a consultation if you have any more questions or to discuss it any further.

Hi, thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! Poor Luna! She has been through a lot. No she shouldn’t get panleukopenia again. Cats tend to have protective immunity after infection. If she is still on medications they may be causing an upset stomach. Be sure your vet dewormed her. I would start a probiotic like Purina Fortifkora and call your vet. I’d ask for a prescription intestinal diet like hill’s i/d or royal canin gastro-intestinal. Discuss stopping or temporarily stopping any oral medications she maybe on and see if they want to see her or prescribe something over the phone. Hopefully this is just a small hiccup. I wish you the best!
