Hi folks. Well Lucky seems to have a mild case of diarrhea. I have heard white rice and boiled chicken can help but he won’t eat that (rarely will he eat any human food). Any suggestions? Thank-you!!

Do you know the source of his diarrhea? If it is from a shot or meds or new food it will not go away that quickly even with chicken and boiled rice.

Has anyone every tried this stuff? I ordered it but haven't had to use it yet. It says it's good for a number of Digestive problems.

I know canned pumpkin (NOT the pie filling, I suppose that should be pointed out!) is good for constipation, but from what I've read online it "works both ways." When my cats have digestive issues I mix 1 teaspoon in with their 2x/daily feedings.

Good luck.

Well the thing is he doesn't eat wet food and with human food (which is normally wet) I think it's the smell (which food processing doesn't help).

Problematic I know.

Hmmm. I'll try that pumkin concept. He doesn't seem to like wet stuff but we'll try! As far as food...I was using Nutro Complete for indoor cats and over the holidays my mom who was kitty sitting gave him "Blue Spa Direct" And he had no problems. When I got back, I began mixing Blue Spa /Nutro and then last weekThe Nutro ran out and I've been just feeding him the Blue Spa (it will run out in a few days). -I don't know what it is since he was fine with just Blue Spa before so basically it's a mystery? he acts healthy and it's just that his daily movement is all loose (but he's not irregular or anything)otherwise he's full of energy etc. so it's odd. Thanks so much for all your expertise folks!

Hi folks. Just wanted to let you all know that it appears that it ws the food that was causing the problem. Within 1 1/2 days of me giving Lucky his good ol' Nutro Complete (for Adult cats), his stool went back to normal and has been fine every since. Amazing!
Thank-you everyone for your help and advice!
