She perked up a bit but didn't realized that she needed probiotics in time so she got diarrhea. I ha e since got the probiotics but hasn't worked...shes still not really "normal " and not sure how much more antibiotic to give if any and any of the proper dosages for this stuff. I now have a 2nd squirrel,with diarrhea this morning and didn't know how he got it...bc he shouldnt be able to catch it from the other one should he? Anyway, just doing the best I can with what I can and hoping for help. I'm using the Esbilac powder and had been doing really well until this incident...
