Some people find that Iams Hairball dried food can help in cases of diarrhoea where nothing else seems to work - it has to be fed exclusively (no other food offered) and will work within 2-3 days if it's going to.
Other people swear by a raw diet for treating this type of problem.
I can understand how frustrating it must be, as well as unpleasant for your cat and you. Hope you get it sorted soon. |

The Vet thinks that the filaments in his intestine may not be working, the blood test will not come back from the USA for another week. I don't think that the has been tested for TF - there was no urgency about getting the sample to the Vet, I will mention it to him. He is eating 250gms of turkey plus basmati rice plus dried food a day and still wants more, and is a furbag of bones. I feed the two cats apart. The other eats a tiny amount in comparison and is a typical Blue, built like a prop forward.
