My previously healthy indoor living 3 year old cat has come back from a 9 day long stay at a boarding cattery with vomiting (green fluid) and diarrhoea. She is now staying at the local veterinary hospital on a drip and antibiotics (as a precaution). The vet examined her and said that she had a slight fever and abdo discomfort and was dehydrated, but otherwise not too bad and she thinks that my cat will get better - She is fully up to date with her vaccinations.
The vet couldn't tell me what the problem is or whether it is a virus or bacteria.
Has anyone any experience of d & v illnesses running trough a boarding cattery and if so, what was the illness? This cattery is attached to a veterinary surgery (not my vet) and is clean and insists on seeing vaccination records.
The cattery have said that there haven't been any other cases of d&v, but I'm not sure if I believe them.
