    irritable bowel flare ups

    Hi Carolina, Just curious...what type of food do you serve Bugsy? How often? Can you purchase raw food at a natural pet food store, or do you mix it up yourself? If you prepare yourself, how long can you keep in the fridge, etc. Glad Bugsy is doing so much better!! :clap:

The chewables became difficult for my vet to get for a while so we went to pill form. I am unable to pill Xena (or should I say she is impossible when it comes to...

    irritable bowel flare ups

    Hi Jen, We've had the vet over to the house many times (she makes house calls! ) and she has prescribed flagyl which most of the time Xena won't even touch.  We've tried all the flavors the chewable form comes in to no avail.  The prednisone works wonders, but I know it's a nasty drug for...

    irritable bowel flare ups

    I forgot to mention that Xena is an 11 year old American short hair (tuxedo markings) and has had IBS since about the age of 7.  She and her sibling, Gabby are rescue cats.  We got them when they were 9 weeks old.  We were feeding them Fancy Feast and Science Diet up until Xena's first diarrhea...

    irritable bowel flare ups

    Hi everyone, I'm new to this forum and I hope you can help with some advice.  One of our kitties has had irritable bowel for many years.  We've had her on a daily regimen of probiotics (Proviable) and a variety of grain free canned food and grain free dry food. Every once in a while she has a...
