Hello everyone!!! I was hoping someone can give me some advice.
Max is a domestic short-hair who occasionally has accidents outside of his litter, due to hairballs. Usually I give him some Petromalt and a couple of hours later he returns to his normal self. Recently, he developed a pooping problem. Thinking it was a hairball, I gave him some Petromalt, but this time it didnâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]t help
Concerned about his health, I immediately took him to the vet. After a thorough analysis (x-rays, blood tests, and rectal exam) the vet determined that Max has kitty hemorrhoids, other than that he is perfectly healthy. He (the vet) drained his anal sacs, and put him on antibiotics and steroids.
After being on the medicine for a few days he is still pooping outside of his litter. Thinking, that Max has associated the litter box with pain or discomfort, I moved the litter box to a new location, uncovered the litter box, and changed his litter to a different brand to no avail it didn't work. I am at my wits end; it is now at the point where the entire house seems like his personal litter box. HELP! -
P.S
I have read the “Inappropriate poop problems answered†threads.
Thanks
