    Repeating Rectal Prolapse

    That's fantastic news! Food circus sounds like fun! I has a cat that was not drinking water from any cat bowls or water fountain - and I was very worried. When he was a baby, he fell in the toilet - I taught he was playing water mill! And than I caught him drinking from from a tall skinny glass...

    Repeating Rectal Prolapse

    Sorry, I'm in a rush: make sure to let animal biome that he is immunosuppresed - 10mg pred is a high dose and by what you described, I'd say he is. In some cases, even probiotics can cause problems in immunosupressed ppl. Not to scare you, but make sure you discuss this w/animal biome - plenty...

    Repeating Rectal Prolapse

    Hi -sorry to hear that there are no more improvements. I honestly think you should try the supplement I've got for Mango - he didn't have any more prolapses since and he's doing really well. From 2" bright red went to normal in few days [ and he went missing for 5 days! ], than he had just...

    Please help! IBD senior cat, but all meds cause severe diarrhea

    Unfortunately, none of her vets and none of the IM specialists she has seen (so far two IM specialists with over 15 yrs of experience) were able to explain the reason for her diarrhea after she gets steroids. I'm so sorry ... see, your kitty is not the only one to have this happen. Mine did...

    Please help! IBD senior cat, but all meds cause severe diarrhea

    Here's my experience: high folate = SIBO. In humans, prednisone predisposes to SIBO. I myself relapsed after a course of metropack. If they called this bile acid diarrhea, I think there are bile acids sequestrants - you have to check. Or you can try to use a clay paste? Something that binds...

    Repeating Rectal Prolapse

    Jabzilla - thank you for your updates! Glad to hear Cosmos is doing great. You really are helping a lot w/these updates. Mango is prolapse free - in addition to those magic pills I dewormed him ( w/diatomaceous earth, he wouldn't eat food w/otc deworming meds ), I added Proviable and he is doing...

    Repeating Rectal Prolapse

    That's great news!!! Yay for Cosmos! And yay for Mango - if it wouldn't have been for Cosmos, I wouldn't have known what a rectal prolapse is and what was going on with Mango! He was in high spirits last night - I woke up at 2am and he was still on the patio - so I fed him again and crushed 4...

    Repeating Rectal Prolapse

    Jabzilla - I hope Cosmos is doing great! For Thor - his nasal discharge as well as the stud tail, as well as his stinky breath and 'stridor' - all this went away w/marbofloxacin. My feral cat ( he is 12, TNR 11 years ago ) recently was not feeling well, he didn't show up for dinner, he did...

    Repeating Rectal Prolapse

    That's fantastic! Glad to hear he's full of energy! Marbofloxacin started working for my other cat in 24 hours. RC my other guy cry in pain, no matter how much water I would add to the biscuits.

    Repeating Rectal Prolapse

    Ignore me if I overstep: one of my cats did the same. I don't know about Cosmo, but for mine it meant the food was not agreeing with him / making him nauseous without the classic lip smacking etc etc. "The CNS also memorises substances that have made us sick in the past to avoid future harm, a...

    Repeating Rectal Prolapse

    I don't have experience w/rectal prolapse, but unfortunately I do w/c perfringens. It's a long/sad story - He was on tylan + weekly b12 + SBoulardii+MOS ( and commercial low carb food, ff, as he was diabetic ) yet he tested 2000+CPA, 2500+CPX. Was resistant to metronizadole and...

    Introducing Betty White

    You're absolutely right. I picked him from the garbage basically, after having him vetted I 'fostered him'. He was not eating cat food, and he was just bones. First 2 weeks were a nightmare. He ripped a bag of Greenies - and seeing the other cats [ one diabetic ] eating, he decided to befriend...

    Introducing Betty White

    Yeah, I actually did call them. They recommended psyllium - this show his gi transit for 3 days, and 2nd and 3rd day his urine ph went to 7.5 than 8 than he pooped and back to 6.5. They recommended inulin - it's known since 1895 that c perfringens ferments inulin. It's known that c perfringens...

    Introducing Betty White

    The bruises are from Vit k. You can ask probably the IM if she's open to some vitamins supplementation. It could help in the long run, for liver, etc etc. Thor's IM was 'nah' to everything. However, after taking w/some oncologist from mskcc ( yes, the human hospital and with some vet from...

    Introducing Betty White

    AutoZone: you go in and tell the guys you have the check engine light on. Probably other stores like AutoZones are having this option. They give you a reader, and than you get the printed result. For free. Yeah, better not ask how I learned about this! I drive stick shift, so for some reason I...

    Introducing Betty White

    OMG! That's fantastic!!!!! And it's not only on paper, she's doing great too! I've got Miau's report as well - apparently his biome looks balanced, but he's crappy as .... i think he gets intoxicated from bacterial byproducts. He barely lays on his belly, he sleeps most of the day. I feed him...

    Introducing Betty White

    I'm sorry - I might be out of line. Please forgive me, as I said ECID ( every cat is different ). How much gabapentin was Betty placed on? It's a long story, and it's hard for me to write about it, but maybe mention to the vet if you think he got way to sedated on gabapentin. Re: what I said...
