We just started him on wet food since he is 4 weeks old now. Question is: Should he still be having the kitten formula or can we switch him to cows milk, like whole milk or something? Also what is the best way to get a kitten, who is used to drinking out of a bottle, to drink out of a dish?
E. coli is a gram-negative, facultative anaerobic (that makes ATP by aerobic respiration if oxygen is present, but is capable of switching to fermentation or anaerobic respiration if oxygen is absent) and nonsporulating bacterium.
Causes of E. coli infection. Although most strains of E. coli are harmless, some produce a toxin that makes humans sick. There are several types of toxins; the group that includes 0157:H7 produces a potent toxin called Shiga toxin that is harmful to the lining of the small intestine.
