dehydrated kitten

‎06-30-2012 10:30 PM

I adopted a kitten from the local humane society last week only to discover he has an upper respiratory infection. He is on anti-biotics but he just isn't drinking. The vet hydrated him yesterday at their office and that seemed to help him. He's been on anti-biotics for about a day and a half, not much time I know, but he's just not eating or drinking. I have been giving him canned food for the moisture but want to ask anyone if they know what else I can do. He is not drinking water, is not using the litter box much. I can take him back to the vet on Monday, but what now? Does anyone know if it's ok to try to give him something like Pedialyte for Kids? Is there something special made for cats?
