No, I'm convinced they are psychic.I think we must give off pheromones...they can SMELL us thinking "VET!"

Congrats on the capture and best of luck at the vet. We will be keeping our fingers crossed that your appointment with Bright Eyes goes well.Well, I managed to get him locked in the bathroom ()
Ain't that the truth?! Jasmine just sniffs at them and then says "No thanks," but I'm actually able to force a pill down her throat. There's no way I could do that with Bright Eyes.Thank goodness for pill pockets, and for cats who love them!
This is the brand that is recommended. Something about the MOS makes the s boulardii work better and this is the only brand that contains MOS without the lactose other brands contain too. You can get this online or at a (human) vitamin shop.Thanks for all the recommendations, everyone. daftcat75 , do you have any suggestions about where I should get the sacchromyces boulardii? Is it normally carried in pet stores, or will I have to order it online?

How much did you start him with? I think I started Krista with a quarter capsule once a day. And got her up to a quarter capsule several times a day until I was giving her half a capsule twice a day. This probably took a week or two to build up to as I was watching her poops to see how or whether to proceed.This morning Bright Eyes threw up his entire breakfast; I think the S boulardii isn't agreeing with him. I found this page: My Cat Has Diarrhea - What Do I Do?, which is about the proper use of S boulardii to treat diarrhea; I'm going to withdraw it from his diet for a day and then re-introduce it more slowly, possibly with some slippery elm powder to sooth his stomach.
