Re: kitten not keeping well plz help
no one can help you on this..good or bad vets you had better get the remaining one checked because this could be anywhere from sever bacterial or severe viral condition.....anythin would be a guess
What do you mean by lost skin on it's tongue? Do you mean he could have gotten into a caustic or poisonous substance and the tongue is now black and necrosed? (peeling away)
Here is a list of vets in India...although not sure how updated it is. According to my map, you are roughly 50-75 miles away from Bangalore, is that a reasonable travel for you? If this is too far, can you not have your current vet consult with another one on your behalf, or can you call any other vets in your area for further advise and instruction?
Unfortunately, your kitten desperately needs to see a qualified vet, he could be suffering anything from a feline infectious disease (like FIP), to parasite overburden, to malnutrition, to toxicity of some sort,....and could probably benefit from fluid therapy, good nutritional support.....ask for a fecal exam if possible, and whatever bloodwork you can to rule out infectious disease.
I'm pulling for your little one, please check the link above and try to make contact with whatever vets in your area you can.
