    Do steroids help malabsorption?

    I've got a cat who's been IBD since I took him in almost 10yrs ago. For a while an Rx food high in fiber seemed to help, then they changed something and it stopped. We've tried everything from pumpkin to other holistic things. Put him on a limited ingredient novel/single protein food that...

    litter box ideas?

    My puddle poop guy has started not going all the way in to his litter box. Getting at least half outside the box. Any ideas on how to make him mice that extra inch inside? He gets all 4 paws in. There is never a mess in the box because I have gotten to even setting up a freaking Blink...

    cat suddenly wiping bum on floor.

    Well, as it says, she suddenly started wiping her (often) dirty bum on my floor. I took in this cat about 4yrs ago and she's settled in here. But suddenly she's leaving ugly track marks behind after rubbing her bum. Now granted, she's FAT. Anyone have prior experience with this? I'm...

    Need new cbd company

    So, I've used Ellevet which is not only nasty tasting but outrageously expensive. I've used Lazarus Naturals salmon flavored on non-ibd kitties. And currently on Cbdmd catnip flavored. I like that one, but they've been having supply problems for too long now. Has anyone used a flavored...
