I have found that when dealing with a litter of kittens that had become ill at five weeks of age, to keep them hydrated I used rice cereal for infants with a very small amount of soy baby formula ,concentrated liquid form,that I mixed 1 part formula to 2 parts water which I made into a very thin "gruel" and fed to them with a very small syringe (without the needle of course) every 2 hours around the clock. after the first 24 hours I would add a very small amount of chicken baby food.But,make sure it is the one with chicken broth,not gravy,as anything with "gravy" makes the stomach disorder worse.(Especially when feeding your cats canned cat food.)Unflavored Pedialyte works well too. I would mix 2parts water to 1 part pedialyte with a small amount of rice baby cereal.(I found that Gerber rice cereal and Beech-Nut chicken work the best ount of all those that I have tried)

Thank you so much, Stinky is alive and well. A can of tuna snapped him out of it. The fancy feast helped him get back to health. He is a healthy and well.
