I'm so sorry!  At least your mind is at ease knowing what the problem is.  So, now your cat can relax and be so much happier.   I have to budget to include yearly vet bills now forever for my beasties.  You are a wonderful person to suffer and put out a thousand bucks. Bless you and your little...

I agree that the vets don't seem to think this is a problem.  When my cat went to the cat box, he would scream to get something out that looked like little hard nuggets.  He too had enemas.  I used the Miralax and that worked great, but I still needed more.  So, I changed his diet to dry and wet...

ENTRY.  My husband and I are very lucky to have found our cat Bosco, and so is he.  We moved to a new state and at that time, he was an outside cat.  He got lost the first week.  We  knocked on every ones doors in a 5 block radius and pinned up lost posters.  A week had gone by and we thought he...

Also, with the Miralax if you don't get results with that dose, increase it a little every day until you get what you want.  good luck!

I found that if I put the Miralax in a srynge with a 1/4 teas of water and put it directly into my cat's mouth, I could determine the exact amount he was getting.  I did it 2x a day and his poop was somewhat better.  But, then I switched to  the Royal Canin Gastrointestinal dry and wet food and...

 My cat of 12 years gets a recurring scab in a different place on his body every year about this time.  It is about the size of a dime and sometimes shows up under his eye.  He usually can't reach the sore, except for the one on his eye, which he rubs against a box or something to open it up...

Since the Salmon oil stinks to high Heaven, how can you tell if it is rancid???

I mix a 1/4 teaspoon of Miralax with a 1/4 teaspoon of warm water and put it in a srynge. Got an ok response.  I also use pumpkin and extra water on the wet food.  Now I'm using something I found in my cabinet that I didn't know I had- it was a liquid salmon type oil.  I got a huge poop today...

Thank you for the description.  I have that problem with my boy.  I've been giving Miralax, which helped a little.  But, still hard marble like dry little balls.  I will try the Royal Canine.  Do you have a suggestion for wet food?  And, do you free feed???

Yes.  $800.00 and told it was constipation.  duh

Yes, Lax-Ease if for cats.  It is expensive.  I also use Miralax and hairball remedy.  I have used the pumpkin puree as well.  His poop is "about" once a day, but is very, very hard and dry and come out in separate tiny balls.  I have taken him to the vet ($800.00) and was told it is just...

That is truly a LOL !!!!!

what is the wet food you are feeding your cat???

The srynge works perfectly.  I am giving 1/8 teaspoon with water.  He goes every day, but they are still very hard, dry little marbles.  Must hurt.  How can I pump up the volume???

I absolutely agree with the bathing with the same shampoo.  When one of my 3 cats goes to the vet, as soon as it comes home, the other two sniff and growl, fuzz up and sometimes attack. Once, the smell goes away (from using the cat box) or I give them a quick shampoo rinse, then they are all...
