My 14 yro tabby is having anal gland issues again, but this time it hasn't resolved itself as quick as the first time.. Before Christmas I took him in and they sedated him to remove a fatty cyst on his neck and clean out his glands The anal glands were slightly infected but all his bloodwork came back great. 12 days later I took him in for a removal of neck sutures, I mentioned he still has diarrhea; the vet there for my regular vet said to cut back on the fiber-had been giving him a little benefiber with fancy feast cat food, along with the probiotic fortiflora for cats.
My regular vet had mentioned Royal Canin high fiber dry food, the vet there while he was on vacation recommended EN Gastroenteric canned. Our cat usually gets 4oz of canned food a day and about a 1/4 cup of grain free dry food. He rarely eats all of the canned food.
I'm so confused on what to feed him to help with this issue. I can't afford the premium canned or dry food. In the past I have tried the pumpkin puree but that didn't seem to help either.
Any suggestions would be appreciated! Thank you.
