So Lucy still has diarrhea, going on a week now. It started a few days
before her surgery, I think from my switching her diets too quickly-- she had
been on S/D only for about 6 weeks, and I stupidly switched her to S/O over only
two days when it was clear her bladder stone was not struvite and had gotten
bigger rather than smaller on the S/D. She had been on Baytril for a month
at that point too, because without it she kept getting UTI's due to the bladder
stone. Since 2 days after surgery she has been off the baytril, but I have had
to switch her food again (this time i am doing it slowly) due to finding out her
stone was ammonia urate (neither struvite nor oxylate). She has been on
Metronidazole for 4 days. I am concerned, because I have never seen
diarrhea in a cat take longer than 2 days to resolve on Metronidazole, and the
vet seemed surprised as well. I have been giving her slippery elm, and today
started giving her a feline kaolin diarrhea over-the-counter med. I gave
her acidophilus for a few days after stopping the Baytril.
Any suggestions? Also, have any of you ever seen diarrhea persist for over
a week, with no other symptoms, from something like antibiotics or dietary
change, but then resolve in a little more time?
Thanks,
Michelle
