I have a male cat that was diagnosed a few years ago with megacolon. He's done well on his twice daily lactulose. However he greatly hates the process of injecting the liquid into his mouth. I recently switched to miralax. I now understand that it must be mixed with water and not just sprinkled on food. And unfortunately the little man only eats dry food. He's extremely picky and I've yet to find anything he will eat besides his dry food. So I'm left to syringe the miralax into his mouth as I did with the lactulose. I'm trying to make him more comfortable/ less stressed out. Which has lead me to thinking maybe mixing it with his drinking water might be the best solution. I've read online that it can be done. Has anyone had any luck doing this? I would have to figure out how much water he needs plus how much powder to mix in daily. But I wanted to see if anyone had experience with this method. My vet isn't much help as he isn't very familiar with this condition.
