You need albon & you will be better off to order it on your own because the vet bill will be just as expensive & they will not give you enough. Coccidiosis has been bad the pat few years & any other pet that comes into contact w/the stool could get it.
This is a good price for it & it tastes good http://entirelypets.stores.yahoo.net/alli516oz.html
This is a good website but dont get the 12% its stronger but tastes so horrible they wont take it & will run away, the 5% tastes good

Cats can get it to. They get it from live stock is your pet on a farm? All pets have this parasite but a overgrowth can accur during times of stress or if the pet was scared badly. Remeber anything happening before he got sick. Has your vet did a stool test. Take in a sample. Get a second opinion. Good luck. If you have any questions you can ask me. I use to rescue from a pound & they always had it-all of them. Some would get it back after adopted, one did when scared by a trash truck. She was fine got frightened had diareah on the spot & had it from then on, got very ill - finally the girl called me & asked me if I knew anything & I told her, she had been to the vet several times & they never tested/found it. But there will be some mucus at the end of the stool then some blood. Med is expensive treat for 20days-the vet will say 10, that wont do it.
