Pet's info: Cat | Domestic Shorthair | Male | unneutered | 5 days old
the question i submitted was incomplete. so here it is again, but clearer my month old kitten has fever, teary eyes, diarrhea, eats only a few bites even when i hand feed him. he was sick since yesterday and gave him unprescribed medicine i bought from an agrivet store because the local vet isn't in his office since yesterday. the sales lady is a vet so she gave me the right meds but there was no proper check up. what food should i give him while he has diarrhea? veggies? cat food? solid or wet

Hi, thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! Benz should eat kitten food either dry or canned. The other option is a prescription intestinal diet approved for growth like Hill’s i/d. I still recommend an exam, fecal testing, deworming and medications for the diarrhea. I wish Benz a speedy recovery.
