It started yesterday. We were hoping he just ate a bug or something. But it happened again today, poor fella. He's been eating normally and as playful (and nutty
) as always. But since this is day two, I grabbed a sample we'll take to the vet tomorrow.
We took his temp and it's normal, and he's not dehydrated. We've already got metro....whatever-the-rest-of-it-is at hand. But because of the ferals around here, we're always worried we tracked something in.
That said... I suspect it's hairball-related. He's been having an issue with them recently, though normally he vomits.
If it IS hairball related (everything else gets ruled out) - what's the best course of action? We've been feeding him a fair amount of hairball food because of the recent issues. They all HATE laxatone or any of the hairball stuff - it's really hard to get down them. Would something like pumpkin help?
(I mean for the hair in his system, not the diarrhea). We've got pumpkin on hand as well.....
