This is additional information that I forgot to include in my first report. Both of my Ragdoll kittens arrived with severe diarreha. Later diagnosed as the parasite Giardia, which is highly contagious to humans One kitten just spent 3 days at the vets. Both kittens have been on meds. since I received them.
I called the vet that examines the kittens for shipping and asked if they do a fecal check when they examine the kittens and they said no. A fecal check would have shown Giardia.
They both get 6 dozes of meds a day, special dry and wet food that I had to purchase from the vet. It's a shame because these kittens are beautiful, beautiful and sick. The cattery said I could ship the kittens back at my expense and I did think about that, however the cost of returning these kittens makes it out of the question. I even thought of driving them back, but that too would be expensive, since I live in Md. and they are in La.
Of course, I have fallen in love with these babies and want to see them healthy. So, I will keep them, however I think the cattery should responsible for these mounting vet Bills.
