hello! My cat was recently put on prednisone for her inflamotory bowel disease. We took her to the vet for a checkup, and the vet wanted to increase her dosage. However, she recently tore a ligament in her knee. Increasing her dosage of prednisone might not help in the healing of the knee, so she was perscribed metoclopramide instead.
She has been on metoclopramide for a couple of days, and while things have been mostly OK, I have noticed a few strange things. First, there has been a few urine spots in the litter box. By spots, I mean it's almost like she urinated for only a second. She did however make a seemingly normal bowel movement yesteday.
Second, she's been meowing at us more frequently. While she is no stranger to meows, it's primarily food related. She will only do it while sitting right next to her food bowl. Now she will yell and various spots around the house, for what reason I don't know.
Does anyone have any experience with metoclopramide? Is this normal behavior? She does seem normal for the most part, and is still affectionate, and still eating and drinking. Thanks in adavance!
