Thanks so much for your comments. I have not tried the Adored Beast products on her yet. I wanted her to try one thing at a time, as we combine multiple things, it's difficult to ascertain which one causes what. Unfortunately, none of her vets and none of the IM specialists she has seen (so far...

I tried this method today and it worked!!! I was worried that Cerenia would get stuck in her throat, so I cut it into 4 but I also used a nail file to round the pill to try to make it as round as possible, which reduced the dosage and the size. I hid it in her canned food and she ate most of it...

thanks so much, that's so helpful!!! I tried to give (hide) a very small piece as you described into her food, it worked first time. It did not work the second time; she had eaten all her food and somehow separated the little Cerenia, I don't know how she did it. So third time, I tried to push...

Yes, it was fine thankfully, but was very scary as I've never seen her cough before and it happened right after administerin Cerenia. I think splitting Cerenia into four is a challenge so perhaps the edges when I cut it were too square as opposed to round pills I've previously administered which...

I just gave my cat Cerenia (1/4th of the pill as prescribed) and followed it with canned food. As soon as she finished eating the canned food, she coughed. I got very suprised as I have never seen her cough ever before. Whenever I give her Budesonide, I also give her some canned food to protect...

thank you, very helpful!!

Thanks so much! Her B12 was checked twice, once in March and then again in July, both were above 400 range. It will need to be checked again, but am not sure when we want to check it again since she has to fast 12 hours for it, and fasting her is EXTREMELY difficult, I cannot tell you how...

Thank you everyone for commenting! Update: Considering my cat's reaction to steroid, we reduced the dose of Budesonide from everyday to every other day, and then to once every two days. This is because she was getting diarrhea exactly about 10 hours after administering 1 mg Budesonide. It's a...

thank you for your response! that makes sense, but we are currently holding off on the endoscopy trying to determine if and how long she is able to even tolerate low dose of budesonide. if she is diagnosed, it's not going to change her reaction to medication, so it will not benefit her at the...

okay, thank you for your response!

Hi Artie's mom, i noticed in a separate blog that you've said you were using Budesonide for Geoffrey in February 2023, as he couldn't tolerate Prednisolone. What was his reaction to prednisolone? Did he have diarrhea and/or vomiting in response to prednisolone? We have tried two different forms...

Update: We have been using Budesonide 1 mg. First one week, she was doing great and it was the first time she did not react badly to a medication. We were so excited that we were making long-term use plans of this medication and wondered why we didn't start this months ago. Then Day #7 into it...

Update: We were doing wait and see approach per vet's guidance and today we went to the IM specialist for checkup. Without any medical intervention (no drugs, no probiotic and no herbal remedies), my cat has had no diarrhea and mild vomiting every couple of days (once a week or less). She has...

Thanks so much! I TOTALLY AGREE with you on the risk of getting a biopsy. The two vets I've been seeing both pushed for this, BUT after I deliberated for a month, I decided not to, because even if the biopsy is conclusive, it's either going to show IBD or lymphoma. At the moment, I don't even...

I am very sorry for your loss. There is no right answer with this. You'd probably blame yourself same way if she wasn't getting treated at the hospital, you tried the best and that's what matters in the end. If you hadn't tried, you could have thought that "maybe would have been better if she...

thank you! Yes, I asked about B12, and he said he will monitor going forward but did not recommend B12 as he wasn't sure if she needed it know her level is still normal range. He said it won't hurt but wasn't sure about her digesting it either. She had tried metronidazole before and a single...

Hi, I also have an entire post about my cat, but she has IBD or lymphoma per ultrasound with high level of folate and whatever vet tried gives her liquid diarrhea. We tried novel protein, Visbiome, prednisole liquid compound and last, tried Transdermal Pred, and within 1st dose she gets liquid...

Update: My cat had multiple additional blood work done so vets ruled out most diseases; had Texas A&M GI Panel done. Her B12 level dropped from 900 range to 400s but vet is NOT recommending B12 injections yet. She still has very high Folate levels. She was also tested for EPI and her level is...

Thank you 🙏🏻 same to you!
