Hi Friends,
Lucy, one of our 11 year olds has had issues with constipation. She's getting Laculose 1-2x a day. Backstory: She was getting both wet and dry food like the rest of our household (of 12 cats) until one of the boys got bladder blockage last October, so we took dry food away from all of them. She was a big fan of the Halo dry food, and we suspect she was eating mostly that. She has lost about 1-1.5 pounds, but seems overall healthy. She has had bloodwork done for thyroid and kidney issues. (all neg).
Looking for recommendations of good-quality wet and dry food for her. Trying to get her to gain weight--I am slightly concerned this might be something bad like GI lymphoma (I'm a worrier), but also know she eats slowly (teeth are fine tho) and gets edged out of her bowl by the younger, pushier cats. I might have to feed her in the bathroom or something.
Please give me any and all suggestions. We don't have human kids so the herd of cats is our main focus!
Thank you.
