I'm new here and have searched posts for answers to my problem with no success. Here's hoping someone out there can help.
My 15 year old female cat who is in good health, eating well, drinking normally and who recently had a $500 blood workup with all results normal, has lost control of her bowels. There is constant poop coming out - soft and smelly. She seems unaware except when I clean her up. The vet does't know-we're tried forti flora and predisone. Both work for awhile and yippee, no poop on my bed, chair, floor, etc. Then it returns.
she eats everything - always has - I mean everything from wet and dry food to pizza, iced coffee, donuts, etc. etc. Never had a problem but I've tried to limit these goodies but it doesn't seem to matter.
Any ideas or remedies?I'm at my wits end with the constant clean up as I am a caregiver for my husband and that takes up enough of my time.
Thanks in advance.
