I almost choked on my coffee reading about them both!

I think I look at Riley's bum more times than I look at his face

 

Oh I am so loving it, we have so many in at the moment..lots of young ones coming in at the moment..I wish I could go every day to help them..

Glad you are getting to do something you feel passionate about,making a difference to these little guys lives is good for them but also great for the environment .If people would only realise they are a gardeners friend and just make a little bit of space for them.

 

Last couple of days he had been better..no tail wipers..

This morning I woke up to cow pat in the tray and poo over the carpets, in the hallway, bathroom and living room wish I had been awake to see just what happened as I can't fathom how he did it, unless again as it was runny he wiped his tail in the poo then wiped it over the carpet, but then there was little bits of poo around also, so maybe was just so urgent

He is fine in himself..I just don't know what to do :thumbdown:

Oh sh*t no pun intended How depressing,hopefully although really messy there is *in Riley's mind" a logical reason for this.
I can be of no help what so ever regarding "what you can do" it seems to be his way of dealing with a dirty bottom.

I thinking some sort of cat nappy

 

Kaisa does this too. She is Karlo's sister and although she doesn't have IBD give her too much bozita or Smilla and she has problems. I'm trying to use up the bozita/Smilla on the other cats. I'm also trying to use up Grau heart and liver as it's about to go out of date. Stupidly yesterday I fed the Grau after giving bozita Friday night. Yesterday whilst we were watching tv she came into lounge and cleaned herself by wiping her bum all along a cream carpet. It was also in her thick fluffy NFC tail :yikes:

Maybe I could design a cat nappy for our cats

Well eventually we have had a deposit..a massive long one bit squidgy on the end but no dramas :thumbup: he did scoot on the new bathroom mat not sure why as his bum was clean

Ab's have now stopped he us just on the liver meds once per day and the chlorambucil once per week. I am expecting a bit of a runny time after the ab's have stopped as he has been on a hefty dose for a long time.

It was nice for a non-tail wiper :thumbup:

 

Well all good so far..no tail wiping needed :thumbup1:

Just on the liver med once a day..it's so nice not having to give so many tablets a day!

That sounds more positive,lets hope he keeps it up.........(I have to keep stopping myself speaking in "bro speak"by mistake )

I would take a photo but don't want to wake him he is all snuggled

Oucheeeeeeeee

 

I feel like I'm going mental

We are back to intermittent diarrhoea again it's so blinking odd. He goes in tray all good so I'm trying to time the poo so always a tray deposit then he does one..then I let him out as my ears are bleeding from the complaining and he comes back in with a dirty bum and tail!

It can't be food can it? He has had a bad time using the tray but most of the time he is fine..

He is absolutely fine in himself..

He will send me to the funny farm I'm sure

 

We have started a period of house arrest! Only taken 3 hours to convince him that being inside is "fun" with lots of cuddles..oh and half a bottle of wine (for me not him )

Just need to get on top of this.

Could be reaction to stopping the antibiotics..?

If it's the kangaroo I'm big time stuck!




On a positive note he is not like he was before I don't feel he is poorly like before..just the return of the runny bum..

I know there is another drug tho he can have if I can't get on top of it..I just don't want to be back at the vets as yet..


I hate ibd

 

Sorry Nicola ,missed your posts.
What a nuisance Rileys "bum issues" have returned .
Cant really be of any help as "thankfully" Meeko doesn't have these problems .You would hope if the kangaroo was behind it (sorry no pun intended) it would have shown up by now,but,we both know IBD has its own rules.

I'm thankful he is not "ill" I know you will understand that even tho he has a runny bum..

I'm wondering again if it's behaviour related..as in he has a poo then rubs it over himself when he goes outside ut: as apart from a few times when he has used his tray when he has had a mucky bum he has not rubbed it over his tail. Tho I'm not denying the runny poo is back..but I think we will always have an element of a runny bum..

Plus if we are talking novel protein I'm stuck..and why is it when I keep him in even tho it's "poo time" he can hang on to it! That says to me it's not exclusively food related..

..but again ibd has it's own rules you are right

Does seem odd that he can hang on to "dire rear" the very nature of the beast says that's impossible as for the not ill bit yep I get that,Meeko is still vomiting occasionally but he isn't ill either,or at least not obviously so.
The only other thing I think that could/can play a part in the mystery of IBD is stress,not that I am saying either Riley or Meeko are stressed but maybe there is something which is upsetting them that we are not aware of.
At the moment he couldn't look less stressed ,he is lying fully stretched out on his fleece covered pillow up on the sofa So I'm going to nip off to bed before he wakes up

I wondered about stress..I know he would like me at home at his beck and call..

He is currently tucking into supper so no stress there either!

Nite sleep well xx

 

Finally he has been..it was a half and half..firm at the beginning then looser at the end but no dramas..quick one pat of the bum as tiny bit still on his bum..no dramas!

Just does not make sense!! If it's behaviour no way would he lay on a couch

Still I'm thankful for normal bum

 

hi, am asking on behalf of someone else.she has ragdoll x kitten approx. 12 weeks old that has very soft poo. what would be better for a kitten of that age to give her? I have suggested rc gastro intestinal but not sure if that is
appropriate for a kitten of that age?

Jenny I think boiled chicken for a few days to see if it will clear it up is what is usually suggested and giving some of the cooled broth it has been cooked in can be useful to help with any possible dehydration .Has the kitten been seen by a vet to rule out all the usual suspects.
