    It's WORKING !!!!!!!!!!

    OMG OMG OMG

    I have been giving Lucas Pumpkin for only 2 days (4 meals) and some metamucil for only the last 2 meals (I felt the pumpkin was working, but not quite enough)

    And lo and behold, this evening a perfectly formed, almost hard poop!!!!!! After all these months!

    *SIGH of relief*

    So if anyone needs a quick diarrhea fix, now you know! (but remember, one still needs to know the CAUSE of the diarrhea.......which in Lucas' case = cancerous intestinal tumors)

    That's good news Jen! I sure can relate to what you're dealing with, even though Hazel's was a different kind, it's a rough thing to go through. Good luck with all this.

Kittens and tame cats are adopted into good homes. Healthy adult cats too wild to be adopted are returned to their familiar habitat under the lifelong care of volunteers

    I'm so glad to hear this. I bought pumpkin for the kitties once and none of them would touch it. Sure glad Lucas likes it.

    This really is good news. I would not have thought about trying metamucil. Anyway, I am glad that this and the pumpkin has helped Lucas

    I'm SO pleased that you have found something that gives Lucas (and you) some relief. I hope that it continues to work for the sweetie.

    Well, that was sure short lived. Soft puddle of poop this morning. But last night for dinner I did give him less of the metamucil because he really doesn't like it. Looks like I may have to find a good way to force him to take it. It comes in capsules, but instructions say to follow with at least 8 oz of water or it may sick in the throat. So I don't feel safe just popping the pill into him. I'll figure something out.

    It's great that Lucas is doing well, and you're bound to have some setbacks now and then, just remind yourself that you're doing the best you can for him, and that'll get you through
