I Love My Lil' Punkin's Donating Member | Pepto might do the trick Has she gotten any shots/meds lately? Has she eaten anything she wasn't supposed to? Any vomiting? How much does she weigh? Depending on her weight, you can give her 1-2 tsp's of Pepto Bismol and if her Diarrhea doesn't stop within a day (after taking the Pepto, it SHOULD stop WAY before that..) I would take her to the vet and have him check her out just to make sure everything is ok. If she weighs 4lbs or more, give her 2 tsp's of Pepto, if she weighs 3lbs or less, give her only 1 tsp

| Welcome to YT I would feed her plain white rice and boiled chicken. How old is she? Georgie got diarrhea a lot when he was younger. If her poop doesn't firm up after eating chicken and rice a couple of times I would take her to the Vet. Hope your baby feels better soon.

| If she has diarrhea for more than a day or 2 she really needs to go to the vet. She may have a parasite like Coccidia or Giarrdia, which are both serious if not treated right away. |

| Is it hot outside? Bambie gets diarrhea right away when it's hot outside (?) I have something called ZooLac that I give her then, (don't know if you have that in the states?), is something that stabilize the bacteria in her tummy... |
