I really don't know what set it off - apparently, kittens can just be prone to tummy bugs, for whatever reason. The vet just said to bring him back if there was no improvement. I can't see that he would have eaten anything dodgy because he doesn't eat anything! He has his biscuits (and not many of 'em, because he likes to graze and then Poppy swoops in and polishes 'em off) and his milk and that's about it. He is phobic about wet cat food. So, goodness knows. It was nasty, though, whatever it was, so I'm glad the medicine fixed him. I did ask about the food phobia when I took him for his first injection and the vet just said to let him take the lead on his diet, so I am. I might ask again, though, when I take him back for the second jab which is coming up.
I definitely do want to re-home the willow tree, btw. It really can't stay where it is, long-term. It'll be okay through the winter when I don't need the washing line and it shouldn't be actively growing, but come spring a new home will become absolutely essential!
