He is starving all the time. When I feed him and his sister, he runs between her bowl and Penelupe's bowl and gulps his food down. Within three to five minutes he poops it all out. It is extremely runny and then it gets on him, so then I have to bathe him. We keep the litter box very clean. I sit and watch him eat and wait until he loses it and clean his box. When he is not eating, I check the box every half hour to make sure it is clean. At night I get up every 3 hours to check the litter box and clean it if I need to and give Bartholomew another bath. Our vet is going to a convention this weekend and said he would discuss his case at one of the senimars. He is checking with a specialist tomorrow. Does anyone have any suggestions? known of a case like this? (please don't tell me if you know a kitten that has died from this)

and it isn't a tape worm?
