So the loose stool issue came back after my last post and we took Percy to the vet yesterday. She suggested it may be diet and so he is currently on a plain diet of boiled chicken (which he is loving). Lo and behold, first bowel movement yesterday evening was pretty firm and normal looking...
The vet also gave us some sample pots and asked us to take samples over three days and bring them in for testing just to check it’s not anything infectious. She also said we will be doing blood work depending on how those come back.
But very interesting that it might be diet. We haven’t fed him anything new. He’s still on the same food he’s always been on. But it’s weird how there was such an abrupt change.
The vet also said the timing of the loose stools and his pooping on the bed was almost certainly not coincidental. She said it was very likely that he was feeling discomfort and couldn’t make it off the bed to the litter box.
No problems since then though. Hmmm.
