Gracie Leigh has giardia
Poor little baby - I took her to the vet about 12 days ago because there was bloody gel in her poop. She put her on Alton for 5 days and it went away.
Thi8s morning I saw it again, so I called the vet. I brought in a sample (so gross!). She does have giardia so she and Max are now on Flagyl for 10 days. She wantsMax too because it is contagious. I have to really clean up after her. The vet said she can eat whatever, but I have her on Science Diet for upset stomachs. I figure the less diarrhea, the less the chance of dehydration and of reinfection since it's in her poop. I'm a little worried and I'm giving both of them Nutrical too so they don't lose too much sugar. Max probably will be okay, but still... My poor babies! I'm keeping them home for a few days.
