I got the s. boulardii today. 1 capsule is 1 human dose. How much of that is a cat dose? around 12 pounds I got the Jarrows

That zoological site does not list how much the diarrea tests cost. Also, Spif has more "soft serve" that diarrea. None of my other three cats have soft poo, so whatever is causing his does not seem to be contagious. I think I will start to give him just one specific food all the time for a few...

This is purina one for sensitive systems, I think it is better quality than most dry foods

Thank you, I did order s boulardi, and the purina one is dry.

Spif was adopted the end of October and had smelly, soft (sometimes drippy mud) poo. After a second negative parasite test, and another dose of wormer, and getting psyllium husk and fortiflora probiotic there has been only a slight improvement. His diet is fancy feast pates, and purina one...

thank you, I will check them out.

Fudge was a feral kitten around 3 months old when he was trapped. He looks like a seal point siamese. I fostered he and his sister, and they were in a crate until they became used to me, and my other cats. Sister got adopted and was more sociable than Fudge from the beginning. It has been 4...

Thank you for your support. we took a nap after he had his sedative. I realized then, the way he was so relaxed laying there, that he must have been in pain the past week or so. He had a lymphoma growth in his belly. The vet was kind, it was a shot pf anesthesia, and then a shot in his vein. It...

My Violet is so fat, and she is a small framed girl. Recently, we had to go to the ER and I spent 1600 dollars because she was so constipated she needed numerous overnight enemas to get her unblocked. She is constantly crying for food, and I feed her separate from the other cats so she stays...

I am so crushed. He was diagnosed with large cell lymphoma last month. He is 16. The steroids increased his appetite and he was doing well until he started sneezing everytime he would go to eat. allergy meds dont work, he is barely eating, and I know he is not happy. I cant do this. I love him...

My ants come in through the back door, where there are two litter boxes. They were terrible last year, and the terro, which works great usually, did not help but continued to bring in more. It is the back door, so baiting them doesn't work, I can't kill every ant that lives in the yard. I want...

I too have had to put down other cats, it never gets any easier. Spike has been with me for 14years, and I want to do the right thing for him. I do not want to watch him waste away, he took a nap on the bed with me this afternoon, it made me so happy.

That picture is a few years old. His coat is not as nice now, and he is skinny. He still has that beautiful face. I read the link someone put above and he is often in the "meatloaf" position. I seldom see him sleeping comfortably. I don't want to prolong discomfort but the alternative is not...

My 14 year old baby has early stages kidney disease. I give him appetite stimulants every few days when he seems disinterested and I gave him fluids. After shoving pills down his throat and poking him he eats and goes behind a couch and stays there all day till it is time to eat. The weather is...

I have not had him back to the vet, but 1400 dollars is what it costs to xray around here and that does not include whatever else needs to be done. I am just going to take him back to the regular vet and have the affected teeth removed as they become evident. He is 14 years old, and I am sure...
