Dillon is doing OK since his time in the vet two weeks ago, apart from the clearout to make him go to the loo, he is not too bad. His blood test numbers were high but the blood pressure is down and the istin tablets are keeping him stable. The problem I still have is making sure he has bowel movements without giving him tummy ache. I increased his liquid paraffin (same stuff as lactulose I believe) to one and half tsp a day as he was starting to pass rocks! This got him going so he now does a small bumble 4 times a day but he is not happy. Everytime he goes he walks around for ages before going and drops it anywhere he can, I think that it must be giving him irritable bowel and I need to change again. Does anyone know of any catfood that has roughage in it, he is on the proper kidney food at the moment but I am past caring about that, it is quality of life that matters at the moment as he is 19, wobbly on his old legs and mostly sleeps and eats.
For years he went to loo only every 2nd or 3rd day, it was black but he seemed a lot happier with that!
Thanks for any advice.
