Hello I did a search for informaiton on raw diet and infection and found some postings here on people that use raw diet.
I bought a formula of raw beef with bone for my cats. Gave it to my kittens that are seven + weeks old that night. Noticed the next day they weren't eating any hard food at all and they were squirting dieareah bad. Like watery stuff. called vet and he had me put them on I/D from Science diet. What else can I do to get them back on track? They have thrown up some too. ANy suggestions. At this age they can't go long before they loose weight and all that.
Thanks

Your vet gave you advice without seeing the cats? Are they up to date on shots? For the future, never change a cat's diet abruptly. In the short term, if they're not ok tomorrow, bring them into the vet's.
Natural live yoghurt replaces the bacteria in the stomach that digest food properly - it saved our orphaned kitten who was going downhill with diarrhoea.
I gave her a generous teaspoon with each feed. It worked very very fast as well.
good idea vivien - make sure the yogurt is plain - no sugar.
