Certainly sounded like IBD. Esp. the smelly loose stools.My rocky had IBD his stools had blood in them as well. He started taking the prednasole and prescription rabbit and pea food from royal Canin and he was fine. I also used some Probiotic RX for pets daily.

I think it is for the herpes virus that is likely causing the sneezing.

My cat Rocky is 4 years 4 months and on Presnosole 1/2 pill every other day for irritable bowl/colitis. ( I adopted him two years ago after my cat Birdie died) He can only eat venison or rabbit at this time (he can eat some cheese or a squirt of whipped cream for a treat).He eats the canned...

The raw diets are expensive,too. I would go straight to the non poultry trial.

The pumpkin give extra fiber to keep the bowels moving. It will not help the runny stools or the smell - coming from a non vet who has been through this. The food is very expensive. I never had the endoscopy either, but I had all the blood tests and a digital exam showed rocky had blood in his...

Poultry is any bird, duck, turkey, chicken. If he is intolerant of chicken there is a good chance he is intolerant of all birds.

Rocky is having anal gland issues. He had them when he was a kitten before I adopted him.  They kind of swell up and get stinky and then go down. They were quite big last night and had a white spot. This morning after he did his thing the gland had gone down. I'm really not sure what to do. I...

By the way he eats two cans of food a day $2,65 per can) which is why the cost is so high. Almost 2k a year to feed him.

He's been to the vet numerous times. I am hoping to get him on a less expensive diet than the Royal Canin PV eventually. I will probably start making his food. If he could eat beef that would help. I am told that if he can tolerate the venison, he may do OK with beef after his colon gets...

I adopted Rocky-feller in January. Rocky, 3-year old cat, has been leaking a pea sized poop sometimes. Pretty smelly. Happens most when he sleeps or relaxes. (he seems to have food intolerances for poultry and sometimes anal glands get inflamed). He does have smelly poops and excess anal gland...

And I worried that he can tell how upset I am. Birdie dying kind of took alot out of me and my reserves are a bit low.

Hi everyone. I now have 3-year old cat named Rocky. Adopted in January. He is a very big sweet boy. He was 17 pounds when I adopted him and needed to lose a pound or two. At the shelter he only got 1/3 cup of RC low cal food but he was in a cage and didn't burn many calories. I started with...

Sorry, didn't see this is page 2. Cleary you have had that test.

Did they test for malabsorbtion? That would explain the big appetite and loss of weight.
