    YIPPEE 3 out of 3!!

    Tonight, Jasper pooped IN the litter box and it was 95% solid!

    He did act like he wanted to do it on the bed (brat). But he didn;t and that is the important part.

    WOO HOO!!!

    Relapse?

    In an attempt to narrow down WHICH meds are working and which aren't, I did NOT give Jasper the Endosorb last night. MISTAKE!

    Found diarrhea on the floor in the morning. Maybe Jasper, maybe not....can't be sure.

    BUT........After breakfast he did his usual poop ON THE BED. It was a solid poop but had the mushy stuff too. And the fact that he has not had an accident for a few days, and now he has had one, tell s me something. I gave him the Endosorb this morning. We shall see what happens.

    Sounds like the endosorb must really be helping. What is it exactly?

    It is a pill, for diarrhea. That is all I know. Kimlovescats ALWAYS recommends it.

    I hope that he'll continue to do well and keep up his appetite. Starr will still have some episodes but lately I think that they've been due to stress. Jasper will continue to remain in my thoughts and prayers.

    OK.

    It seems we are at a standstill on improvement. He is doing well, mind you, but every other day he still poops on the bed. (forcing me, of course, to make the bed up with the plastic sheet EVERY day).

    The poops are now well formed, but always have some of the mushy/slimey stuff around them. So I am not sure what that means. And why the bed? So I can see it? (which, in a strange way, IS a good thing)

    He eats well and acts normal, so I am glad about that. I give him endosrob twice a day, prednisone once a day, and a packet of "Purina forti-flora" once a day (made for cats with diarrhea.)

    I'll have to consult with the vet on possibly changing a dosage (to see if that would help)

    Just thought I'd update.

    Well...it's better, at least! I wonder if he still gets the sudden urge and teh bed is closest.

    Hey, if Nancy would give you a bulk rate, as she did with another PT'r, maybe you could put Jasper into the mix.

    Did you find out about a special rate yet?

    HUGS and prayers to you and Jasper. Jas is JUST about there!
