my 14 year old cat is sick. Unfortunately it all started with me. Tuesday night he was constipated and had a close call not getting the poop out, but he did. So I gave him some Miralax. Well I am not sure what happened but he hasn't been the same since. Total Diarrhea. I have done what I could.. making sure he has food and water to make up for it but just now he was crying hard and visiting the litter box... he finally threw up well and good. He also has a recurring problem of swallowing congestion from his lungs and about every 6 months he will do a massive puke of 'flem. That just happened.
He seems ok now... even considering eating again, but I took it away from him to give him a chance to rest.
Usually I can stop diarrhea with Fori Forta but this time it isn't working. But perhaps the flem was contributing to the diarrhea.
Is there anything I can do? I know you will say take him to the vet but typically with digestive distress they just tell me to give him rest and let it work itself out naturally.
