I already did :) She said it’s ok to administer Miralax until He is used to the glandex.
I was just curious about the other probiotics you had mentioned:)
Thanks!
The vet prescribed it. It is for cats. The vet also said it is ok to mix the glandex with Miralax until his body gets used to it.
What do you mean by plain probiotics?
Thanks!
Thank you for your response.
The vet didn’t tell me the dosage for Tiger because it is on the label. I think it is my fault. He is close to 15 pounds (14.7) so I have been giving him the 1/4 instead of the 1/8 which is for cats under 15 pounds. I have a question about the pumpkin. Is it ok to...
Hello again :)
I have been giving My 14 year old tabby 1/4 of Glandex every day for the last 12 days. The problem is that he became constipated so I have given him a couple doses of Miralax (one yesterday and one today). He has pooped which is good, but I am wondering if anyone has experienced...
Update!
The scab came off and he is free from the cone. The glandex has made a difference in his stool. It is bulkier and while he has to push a little harder, it is not strenuous.
I hope it works!! Thank you everyone for your advice. We are having a lazy caturday!
Update!
He has a scab down there and he is still wearing the cone. I plan to keep it on until the scab falls off. What do you think?
I have been applying camomile tea soaked compress twice a day to speed up the healing process.
I don’t know if the glandex is working since he has only been on...
Thank you for suggesting the wipes. I will give that a try as well. I am hoping the glandex works. He has had 4 episodes in the last 4 years. It seems to be once a year.
Thanks again!!
I am sorry to hear about your cat’s anal gland issues. It is unusual in cats from what I have read. Thank you for your kind words and advice. I am hoping the glandex will work for him, but if it doesn’t I am going to have to learn the booty bathe (chuckle) maneuver!
Thanks again!
Update. I noticed a lot of swelling by his bum this am so I took him in and the vet lanced both glands :( He has to wear the cone of shame for a week and he has been sleeping on me all day. I am so sad!
Have you ever tried Glandex? Does it work well for cats?
Hi! Thank you for your advice.
What would cause a pinkish bloody discharge then? Could it be from pushing out a bigger than usual feces?
Thank you again!
Thank you for the compliment! He is a good looking tabby, huh! I could try Metamucil, skip the pumpkin and also skip the big treats. I looked online but I could not find anything regarding these treats and bum issues! I do have purebites :)
As far as brushing teeth, it took about 3 weeks. Not...
Hello!
I am wondering if it is ok to add 1/4 of Metamucil to my cat’s food as a prevention for anal gland issues.
My tabby has had 3 episodes in the last 5 years. All three times required lancing and draining. My gorgeous orange tabby is 14 and weights 15 pounds (he is a chunkster!). He is on...
