Also, I know that in humans, antibiotics result in gastrointestinal infections, due to the natural good bacteria being killed off, allowing bad bacteria to proliferate.
The doctor invariably prescribes more antibiotics, making it worse.
Sounds like what’s happening with your cat.

I’ve found that plain Greek yogurt (probiotic) gets the GI tract back in balance. You might try offering some to your cat, or mixing it with her food.
If it’s what her body needs, she’ll instinctively gobble it up.
If not, she’ll reject it.

True - antibiotics kills GOOD gut bacteria along with the bad, thus disrupting digestion.

Solution is to take probiotics - lots of ways.

I take on a regular basis a liquid in a bottle - thick stuff. Afterall, they are *live* things, how do they live in a dry pill -

I get it in refrig section at Whole Foods. There is plain, and flavored. Animal may like the sweet flavored.
