    Senior cat constipation and Miralax

    I live in a condominium complex where dogs are common. My Lily never goes outside, but unfortunately I, myself, have brought home a stray flea or two that hitched a ride on my pants or shoes. Before I knew it, I had a flea infestation and Lily was miserable! Revolution on Lily and a pet-safe...

    Thank you so much! I appreciate your thorough response and the linked articles. I feel much better now about continuing the Miralax but as of yesterday I reduced the dosage to 1/8th tsp (from 1/4) and will see how that goes.

    Good point, thank you. She doesn't mind the Miralax powder mixed with her food and eats everything up. But if I need to switch to the syrup I'll keep that in mind.

    Thank you. For continuous use, or for just the "recommended" 3 days?

    She doesn't have hairballs. I give her Greenies Smartbites Healthy Indoors treats every night and they seem to prevent hairballs.

    Senior cat constipation and Miralax

    Thank you for your feedback. I agree with you! Another drawback of the liquid Lactulose is that it needs to be given twice a day! I really don't see how this could work with Lily, who already refuses to eat her food with the syrupy stuff added to it. The vet also said that Miralax unbalances...

    May I ask how much Miralax you gave your cats, and how often?

    Senior cat constipation and Miralax

    My Lily is now a senior kitty, as she turned 12 this past June. She is spayed, UTD on all vaccines and gets Revolution every month even though she is strictly an indoor cat. She weighs 12.6 lbs which is a tad overweight for her size, and eats only Purina Pro Plan canned food. Her recent blood...

    Cat lollipops?

    Hello everyone. What is your opinion on the "cat lollipops" that are so plentiful on Amazon? My Lily is now 12 years old. She has slowed down a little but still wants to play in her own time. I'm always looking for ways to keep her entertained and stimulated. I read about these "cat lollipops"...

    You are very welcome. Keep in mind that it smells VERY strong, though! At least the first day, you can smell it from anywhere in your house. It's not an unpleasant smell -- just strong.

    Lizard Droppings

    Thank you for your reply! I had no idea about lizards/some lizards being dangerous to cats until I started googling today! I'm glad to hear that none of your cats ever showed any ill effects from eating lizards... and maybe lizard poop too. Ugh! :barfgreen::eek3::barfgreen: Never a dull moment...

    Lizard Droppings

    Lily got into mischief again. She is a 100% indoor cat, but I live in a condo that has a screened balcony. Off the balcony is a small storage room which unfortunately seems to be a refuge for common Florida lizards. Not sure where they come from -- there must be some sort of hole in the wall. I...
