Michelle and Nina - thanks for answering so fast. Which should I try
first - the Slippery elm or the pumpkin? I have both.
Poor Fu doesn't want to eat - I think it's the constipation. The vet
also thinks his intestinal cancer is probably no longer in remission,
but he has been eating up to the
If he's got a problem with veggies, or won't eat the pumpkin, you could
also try psyllium to add fiber and help maintain his function. The
Pepcid is a good idea, remember to use the "original strength".

Hi Bonnie,
I wouldn't, but that's just me. I just wouldn't want to force anything
else down him after he's already been assist-fed and thrown up! Was
this his first dose? How long after you gave it to Fu did he throw up?
What does the stuff taste like? Could you add a 1/2 dose to something
I would give him 1/4 or 1/2 Pepcid a half hour before feeding him, then feed him food, and then maybe afterwards give him a little bit of Lactulose.
The other thing you can give for constipation that is milder on the system, and also combats nausea, is Slippery Elm. You can buy it in capsules
My 19 year old frail Fu is constipated. The vet said to give him 2 ml.
lactulose morning and evening. I gave him the evening dose a little
while ago while I was assist feeding him as taking lactulose on an
empty stomach sometimes makes him nauseous.
Well, he threw up anyway and I wonder if he

And he's IMPOSSIBLE to pump full of meds - easier to give a shot, if they
have it. I have transfer factor, but don't have him on it - maybe will
give it a try. Thanks!

Hi -
I haven't posted here in a while, my sweet little Roxie died a couple of months ago and I just had to take a little break. We still have Ollie, who will be 1 at the end of July. He was born in a litter of 3 and is the last one left. We have since found out that his mother is FeLv positive,
I couldn't agree more with you. Poor gal I feel so bad for her it's tough losing two babies within the same day.
I've had it happen to me within a week and that was bad enough for me.
Where ever she travels I hope she is safe and sound as well.

Can you believe it? Poor Kerry. I'm not going to rest easy until she's
home and posts to the group again.

Hi Gloria,
I'm sorry to hear Lancelot is still having problems, but glad he's made
some improvement. The blood test results sound promising actually. Do
you have him on Transfer Factor? Is he still eating okay? I hate
pumping them full of meds, but what are you going to do? We have to try

Sheila,
I would guess because in the wild they would be eating birds, frogs,
snakes, and other small mammals, not chicken, beef, lamb, and other
things that are in the diets we feed them. Different meats have
different proteins and vitamins. A cat has some very delicate
requirements
I discovered yesterday that Bramble is still having very mild seizures - however, now that the revolution is out of his system the seizures are very mild compared to after revolution was given to him. He just freezes with his jaw open for seconds then carries on. He won't eat for a few hours after
Any time we can help
Good Luck ;-))

Nina, Thanks for your input on your success with touchy cats! I see that speed is a big factor. You are good!! No, I didn't see the recent thread on Revolution, hmmm... I have used it on him before with no problems, though,
Poor Domino. I'll just keep my mouth shut.
