Kitten recovered from parvo, now has runny stool. Can she get it again?

Question

My 2 month old kitten was diagnosed with Feline Parvo, but has been treated and much better. WBC is back up and has been cleared by the vet. She has been home for 4 days, She is eating a lot, drinking water, playing and being active but I have just noticed that her stool is runny. Can a kitten who has already had and been treated for feline parvo get it again? Also she seemed to be heaving but nothing came up, could this be a hair ball? Should I take her back to the vet? Pet's info: Cat | British Shorthair | Female | unspayed | 1 month and 5 days old

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!
