Kitten has a bloated belly, been dewormed once already and no worms in her stools?

The vet nurse said it feels like gas from eating too fast and that it's common for kittens to get pot bellies because it's just skin basically covering her stomach. I am still worried though - anyone else have this experience?

    Yes, some kittens just eat a lot often and seem to always have a pot belly. It goes away as they get a little older.

    If your kitten lived outside on its own or it did with its mom, your kitty may have something else up with its tummy. If you are still concerned, get a stool sample, and ask your vet to see if it has any parasites. Kitties sometimes get Giardia from drinking dirty water and that can cause their tummies to bloat. If your kitty has really stinky poo or is farting, it could be a sign of a parasite.

    it could very well be a flipped stomach kinda like what the dog had in marley and me.
