My 18 yr old 6lb male kitty has constipation/hard stool issues like I posted the other day. The vet prescribed lactulose today for him. They want me to give him 3ml 3x's a day- every 8 hours. I know she also mentioned I could do it 2x's a day but have to reread the dosage. He has not had any bloodwork so I do not know if he is diabetic or not. The last time at the vet she said that since he is 18 years old there was no need to run bloodwork because at his age if it shows his kidneys are not good there really isn't anything we can do. I fear he will get the diarrhea. He is one who goes poop where ever he gets the urge sometimes. Thank goodness he isn't like that with pea.
They also said I need to feed him Royal Canine Fiber Response dry food and Royal Canine Gastro intestinal moderate calorie wet food.
He can have nothing else.
I think she said I was to use the lactulose daily and not stop. I read that it is high in sugar so now I worry about diabetes.
