Hello,
I have noticed that Nature's Variety Instinct canned 5.5 oz LID rabbit is out of stock and has been for some time through Chewy.com and Amazon. Does anyone know why and if it will come in soon? Any idea where I can get it?
My kitty (He has IBD) likes the rabbit, but he only has had the...
This has probably been mentioned. So I've started my cat on Nexabiotic (the first day was Thursday) administering 1/2 capsule both AM and PM. He has been having diarrhea for about a month possibly more. Should I see a difference in his stool in just these few days or is it common to have to keep...
Thank you so much for the info StephenQ!
Very very helpful in understanding my situation.
Have to keep his weight up and I started a log last Saturday.
I'm going to contact the vet and see what he wants to do based on how he's doing.
Correct he has gained 1 pound from 5 - 6 lbs in this last 3 weeks. Don't know if it is the Prednisolone 5 mg or just diet change or even both. He's got a pretty good appetite but not sure how it was before now. I got more information and looks like he had been steadily around 4-5 lbs before...
- How old is your cat?
5 years only 6 lbs
- What are your cats symptoms?
Diarrhea (not leaking, he makes it to the litterbox fine, have seen a little bit of blood, and maybe just 2 times of vomiting )
- When did the symptoms start?
We started to treat him roughly 3 weeks ago, but they...
OK thanks for the reply. How should I tell my vet I want to wean him off it? Will he understand because right now the dose of 5 mg isn't doing anything ?

He was prescribed it by the vet because he thinks he might have IBD . He prescribed a mg tablet of Prednisolone and also gave me a prescription for Flagyl . I want to wean him off because I want to treat him using a holistic approach . I have not talked to my vet yet about weaning him off, so...
Can anyone please give me any suggestions or opinions on properly weaning my 6 lb cat off of Prednisolone? He is currently on a dose of 5 mg a day tablet and he's been on it for roughly 3 weeks .

Thanks to everyone for the replies so far!
I will definitely keep everyone updated on how the process goes along here throughout the week.
We're going to switch him to the Rabbit or Lamb Nature's Variety Limited and hope it helps out. I hope he likes the flavor! He's pretty fond of any wet food...
Maybe you guys can help my 5-year old indoor cat, Grandpaws? He’s a very small size built cat, only weighs 5 pounds, and is very skinny and lethargic, his coat isn’t shiny at all and has dandruff.
He was adopted from a large group of other indoor cats and noticed that he was on dry Purina Cat...
