My Rufus poops generally every day or at least every other day. He doesn’t strain when using the litter box, which I’m happy about, but I’ve noticed over the last few weeks he’s had some hard stool. He will normally do a normal poop, but there will sometimes be one or two tiny piceces along with it that are hard as rocks.
One nIght a few nights ago he pooped and it was terrible. It was like 4 little rocks. I started giving him pumpkin purée the next day and he did a good poop almost immediately after eating that. Since then his poop overalls looks normal but when I pick it up I notice there’s a couple pieces that litter isn’t really stuck to and that are hard.
I’ve been giving him 1/2-1 tablespoon of pumpkin purée at night. I think it’s working but sometimes it’s kind of hard to tell. I was wondering if I should keep that up? I read if you give too much it can have the adverse effect so I didn’t know if I should do it for a long period of time. Anything else I can do? He gets mostly dry food but I give him wet food with quite a bit of water added at night.
