    They don't have anything like Imodium for cats that you could try him on? That is what I take when I get the flying sh******.....and it helps sometimes, sometimes it don't and required a stronger anti-diarrhea from the doctor. Looks like they could do something...

    Have you tried cooking him stuff at home like chicken and rice, skimming off ALL the fat, put in a blender and puree it? It could be a ingriedent in the bought stuff that sets him off?

    If the hard lump is a benign something-or-other, and they need to remove it...get yerself to IMOM before you go broke!

    I hope they DO find something, curable...how is Lucas' mood?

    Gosh Jen this has got to be so frustrating. It's worse not knowing what you're dealing with than what you are. I sure hope the ultra-sound gives you some idea what's causing all this. Hugs to you!
    Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) is a full management plan in which stray and feral cats already living outdoors in cities, towns, and rural areas are humanely trapped, then evaluated, vaccinated, and sterilized by veterinarians. 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

    Laura, I too think they SHOULD be able to do SOMETHING! But we tried all the conventional medicines and even a few not so conventional. And I was given the option to try him on chicken and rice, but if he even licks my dinner dish he throws up. Poor sensitive boy.

    Let's just hope we get a bit of a clue from this ultasound.
