Yes - that will be my next step (stool sample to Vet). Re the probiotic - don't believe all that's on the internet! In the meanwhile, he's back in his "safe room". I can't deal with poop all over the bed again.

A reminder that I adopted Cat 2 (pic below) about 2 months ago. I've been giving him s.bourlardii for about 3 weeks and there is some improvement - stool a tiny bit firmer and much less frequent. Things seemed to going fine (he is playful and energetic and looks healthy with good weight. He...

The suture line looks fine!

No, I don't know what he had - he was given Strongid T on Dec 1 & Dec 8. Milbemax on Dec 8. No indication that he was tested before or after.

Thank you for your replies. After 3 days of s.bourlardii there seems to be some improvement. Diarrhea still present but stools are a wee bit firmer and much less frequent. I'll continue the probiotics for another few days, but will be sure to ask for the tests you suggested when we get to the...

Thank you for the replies. It's been over a month since I adopted him. In retrospect, I should have transitioned the food. What I feed him is limited ingredients, no grain. I don't think going back to shelter food will help at this point because he was at the shelter for only two weeks and...

New Cat (Cat 2, age 1.5 yrs) was adopted 5 weeks ago. He was immunized and treated for worms, etc about 3 weeks prior. He joined Cat 1 (3.5 yrs old). They seem to get along very well - eat and play together and sleep close to each other. Cat 2 had diarrhea when he arrived, which in my...

Thank you Furballsmom. I don't like scented anything so don't have scented candles or diffusers. But the litter box is close to some household cleaning supplies. Thank you for mentioning those - I can't smell them because the lids are on tight, but will move them farther away from his litter...

I have a red point Siamese cat that always has brown, hard boogers in the corners of his eyes. I need to clean them off every day or two. They are very crusty and I am unable to wash them off - I need to pick them off. I have occasionally see the discharge before it hardens, and it is also...

Short answer - no. There are many places on line that explain how to introduce cats. It wasn't much of a problem when we lived on the farm and the cats lived outside & in the barn. But I have tried twice now that we live in the city and the cats stay indoors. I thought it was successful with one...

Oh my goodness - did not know!!!! I'll keep trying to find something else for a treat (no - doesn't like Fancy Feast - fussy cat!!!). No more fish! Thank you very much for your reply.

My cat's main diet is dry cat food. But his previous owner fed him canned cat food - don't know what brand. I give him 1/4 tin every day as a treat. Though trial and error I found that he will eat ONLY "Special Kitty Select Ultra Gourmet Cat Food Real Fish". I haven't tied many brands but...

I was so happy to find this thread. In over 50 years of owning a cat, I have never had one that didn't clean his/her butt. Until now. I adopted a Siamese Red Point male, age about 2, four months ago. SO cute and sweet. But he gets dark crusty discharges from his eyes that I need to clean every...

I adopted my 2 year old flame point siamese cat just over 2 months ago. He has a brown discharge from his eyes that I need to wipe away every day or two. He also has a dirty bum - looks so stupid on such a pretty cat. I assumed it was because he was new and he was not taking time to clean...
