Ginger is unwell (diarrhoea and vomiting)

It wasn’t Smurfy or Robin.

It’s Ginger. I’ve confirmed it after scouring through the CCTV footage and adjusting the camera to point at the sandpits.

Then, I witnessed the events myself shortly after midnight and again, this morning.

It’s Ginger.

Smurfy and Robin are fine.

I gave Ginger Kaolin-Pectin last night and since then, there has been much less diarrhoea. But he’s also vomiting digested food.

Will be taking him to the vet’s today. I hope we can get a slot.

Ginger was able to eat some canned chicken this morning. That would be the recommended diet for vomiting and diarrhoea.

I hope he gets well soon, with the medication needed. And I hope it’s not coccidia (what Juno had). Coccidiosis afflicts those aged six months and below and also immune-compromised adult cats. Ginger is FIV+, but he gets Vetri DMG every day.

The thing with Ginger is he moves very stealthily and is quiet, so I don’t really hear the sounds. I have to rely on the CCTV footage.
