Lucas (May 8, 2006)

Lucas' bladder was not full enough to get urine, so he is spending a few hours at the vet office. The feeling is that if he is having bladder issues this might cause the diarrhea to flare up.

We may also be trying yet another different food.

I'll let you know later when I know something. Thanks for thinking about my boy.

Praayers and positives thoughts on the way Jen, for your precious Lucas.

I tried aloe gel on a cat....they don't like the taste, but it's something you smear on their paws or muzzle.

It really helped one cat I worked with at the kennel.

Make sure the container does not say "For External use Only"

If you know a Herbalife person, there are small sample packs that will last Lucas a few days. Just a glob on the end of the finger.

Heals the skin of the intestine like aloe heals external skin.

Good luck with your baby!

Awww, poor Lucas. I hope his visit to the white coats will help! My thoughts and prayers are with Lucas... hope he is better SOON!

Still another hour to wait. The vet feels something hard. he first thought was it was a hard poop. Or possibly a large stone. But no urine sample yet. I asked about an X-ray, but we will wait for the sample.

God, how I hate waiting.

I Know What You Mean Jen.
Its Hard Not To Imagine That The Worst Is Going To Happen That They Are Going To Come Out And Say That Your Cat,your Friend Cannot Be Helped.
After That Happened With Pouncer I Am A Nervous Wreck If I Have To Wait.
We Are All Praying For Lucas, Jen.

Hang in there, Jen. {{{hugs}}}

Here's hoping they find a solution once and all for his diarrhea.

I could never understand it.....when I took CJ to the vet, the vet could always feel that his intestines were hard too, indicating hard poop as compared to the diarrhea, but when we got home all I found in the box was diarrhea. CJ has been doing well lately, though, on the Science Diet D/D green pea and duck formula. I give him a Pred. about once a week or so and he's doing well with that.

Good luck with Lucas!
