Tag was on prednisone in 2021. A week after he was put on it, I had to call the vet because he was pacing, panting, and drinking water nonstop. He was also reclusive and kind of pissy which was not like him at all. They adjusted his dose and he did SO much better. Meds can be tricky at first because it's finding that perfect balance between it working properly at the lowest dose. Sarah's initial dosage for her hyper-T was too high and her symptoms reversed, so we adjusted it and she's been great ever since.I wouldn't be concern ATM about him not eliminating YET- its not unusual for Willie as you've mentioned & I certainly would not administer Miralax as it might trigger diarrhea-see if he goes tomorrow and if not call the Vet
However,with him going in and out of the box I'd wonder of he's having the sensation to urinate as frequent urination is an expected side effect of the methyl prednisolone-make sure he has plenty of fluids as his thirst will increase as well so he should be going more often- call your Vet tomorrow and discuss these things
