Male Cat 13 years old.
2 weeks ago started having pieces of poop all over the place.
Went to vet and diagnosed anal gland problem/but hole was very infected.
Vet prescribed Clavamox for two weeks. Cat has been on the antibiotic for 1 week now (oral with seringe via the mouth).
Since being on the anti biotic poop falls right out of his butt all over the place. It is like he doesn't have any way to control it. The stools are very soft.
His but looks much better and almost looks normal. I called the vet and they said it will take time to heal.
Please please if anyone knows why the medicine has caused the problem to get worse/why poop runs right out of him now and if this will all get better after another week when we get off the medicine.
I have talked to two vets on this and they both say the same thing but act like this isn't really ever going to heal. Appreciate anyone's input.
This is straight poop, not simple anal gland fluid on the floor.........my carpet machine has been running overtime!
Thank you to all!
