Hi! I have had my kitten Umephere, Umie for short, since August. I've been around sphynxes since I was 10, and she is having some issues I have never seen before this consistently and this badly. She was really, really small, like 3 pounds at 4 months old and would eat like a rabbid animal. (she still does). She has gained a little bit of weight I believe she is 5 maybe 6 pounds at 9 months. She is so tiny though, not long at all looks like a baby. She also has diarrhea at least once a day. They smell horribly and she farts, like audible human farts, quite often. I've taken her to the vet a few times and the first time they did nothing, the second time they told me her behavior towards food, super aggressive, can't be around while we eat, will steal food out of your hands, is because she was allergic to her food, most likely chicken in it. I hadn't changed her from the food from the breeder yet so I put her on Canidae limited ingredient dry food, and BFF wet food, but of course no chicken. So her diet is incredibly limited. Then they said she just has gas bubbles, but that was months ago and the kind of gas she is having sounds painful and I worry for her. I have her on a probiotic, also omegas and l-lysine for good measure. Does anyone have any ideas about what this could be or experienced anything similar? (Also she gets weird red bumps whenever she gets her bath or she gets pulled away from human food or gets grumpy, so im assuming its an anger thing, and will attach pictures when I see them next, but I was wondering if anyone else has experienced this either?)
Thank you!!
Thank you!!
