    Metronidazole Not Helping With Bloody Diarrhea In Adult Cat

    Well, the diarrhea isn't any better :( I'm feeling so deflated. I guess we are going to do the pcr test. My biggest fear is they will not find anything and he will have some more serious internal problem.

    Metronidazole Not Helping With Bloody Diarrhea In Adult Cat

    Just wanted to give an update after the vet trip today. They did a full exam and took his temperature. Although they seemed a little surprised that the diarrhea got worse on the medication, she said she was still confident it was some type of colitis causing the blood. She gave me some sort of a...

    Metronidazole Not Helping With Bloody Diarrhea In Adult Cat

    :) I apperappre all the positive thinking. Unfortunately it's an all stages food so I have them both on the same thing. They both have extremely stinky stool and have for a while.

    Metronidazole Not Helping With Bloody Diarrhea In Adult Cat

    I haven't changed his food since he's been an adult cat. He's always tolerated it really well. In fact, he's always been very healthy. The kitten on the other hand has had a rough start. He has several infections, worms, an irritated digestive tract from medications, worms and fleas. He has...

    Hey! I just wanted to give a quick update. In the last three days, his bloating just went resolved. It took a little over a week on the probiotics, a food change, and I have been giving him the gas medicine as needed (which is usually after a meal of he eats the entire thing). He hasn't had a...

    Oh thank you! Trust me, I will stick with him come what may. I just worry about this little guy too much. I'm glad yours grew up to be a healthy guy! My kitty doesn't have any trouble eating even now. In fact, he is up to 2.7 pounds and eats more than is recommended on the bag. I am thinking...

    Active Kitten Has Bloating And Diarrhea Despite Deworming

    Thank you for the information. I took my kitty to the vet on Wednesdayand she brought up the bloating before I had a chance to. She suggested that maybe it was tied to the oral antibiotics he had been taking and that there was possibly an over-growth of bacteria in the belly. She asked me to...

    Choosing Weight Control Kibble: Wellness, Natural Balance, or Other?

    I was thinking of waiting on the wet food for a couple of reasons. This first is with him being a little chunky, I thought it would be better to get the kibble brand and portions leveled out and then experiment with adding something else. Additionally, my little guy comes to work with me...

    Choosing Weight Control Kibble: Wellness, Natural Balance, or Other?

    Hi Everyone! I have been doing some research recently and was hoping to get some help as it seems I am drowning in a sea of information. My Jinx is 3 years old. He was not blessed with a fast metabolism and he is lazy as heck. He will play a bit, but he is hard-pressed to actually get up for...
