hi.
 
katie-ferret has the epitome of perfect poop.  she has a lot of it, sure,
but its perfect in shape, color, consistency.  mollie on the other hand,
is prone to occasionally having seedy poop.  very occasionally( 4 times
since april) having a bit of green in there.  right now shes got diarrhea.
and seeds.  on thursday, i gave the a cap full of milk, which i know isnt
the best thing in the world, (but they sure thought so) so i thought that
she was runny from that.  friday i was gone all day and night, i woke up
saturday, and she still had it.  i know that's not from the milk.  so
she's still got it today and i cant find any nearby vets that are open-
their regular one isnt- mollie's not lethargic, as we speak she's
wrestling with something that isnt there- she beat the crap out of katie
like she always does, every 5 minutes shes leaping through the air from
couch to couch to chair, shes eating and drinking normally, and when i
scruff her her skin goes back.
 
i've heard of using pepto or kaopectate- is this a good idea without
taking her to the vet, and how much is administered, how often?  she's
about 7 months old and hasnt had any health problems.  also, is there any
kind of food that will "firm her up" ?  someone told me a finger full of
peanut butter, i would think that would do the opposite.  thanks.
