My 14 yro tabby is having anal gland issues again, but this time it hasn't resolved itself as quick as the first time..  Before Christmas I took him in and they sedated him to remove a fatty cyst on his neck and clean out his glands The anal glands were slightly infected but all his bloodwork...

Thanks for the information.  He won't touch the Royal Canin at all, after 3 days of trying; ended up going back to the Fancy Feast for right now.

Sounds exactly like my cat!!  I thought it was metamucil I was using but it is Miralax.  How much do you put in the food?  I've been adding an 1/8th of a tsp to his morning food with a little bit of water.

He is about 11 years old.  I had tried the pumpkin for fiber but he hated it, so I add 1/8 tsp of metamucil to his morning feeding.  I have been feeding him some Friskies and some Special Kitty varieties(I think that...

I bought the canned.   I'm actually surprised my vet didn't  mention a store bought brand, he or his tech usually do because they know I can't afford much.  I can take it back-which I might.  I've never had a cat with any kind of health issues-my other two cats(RIP)had always been fed  dry...

Hi  I'm new here.  We have an inherited cat-Gilbert- from my daughter and her roommate(unsettled college students shouldn't be allowed to adopt!) Anyways he is costing us money we don't have.  He had been scooting quite a bit and constant licking of anal area, so when I took him in for his...
