Question about my kitty

[Mycatownsme]

Well,
We got back from the vet (and my dear cat Rachael passed away from cancer about 15 min after we got home.) but the only keeping me sane is that it is as catty1 had mentioned he had pretty much the same issue. a lot of bacteria. He was given some meds and is to take them for 7 days and return to insure that was and is the only issue.
He did note that he seems to have issues with hard stools which might be causing a tear in the inside of his rectum. Hopefull my dear one will remain healthy and not take the passing of his cloest friend as a sign to leave me.
This sure has been a hard week. I am REALLY thankful I found this site!

Hard stools...try a wee bit of metamucil in a bit of wet food, or even a tiny bit of olive or castor oil.

Hopefully the pills will fix most of the problem.

I am so sorry about Rachel. How old was she? Poor you, and poor dear girl.

Rachael was 4 years old and was diagnosed with cancer at 3 and held on for a very long and tough fight. It was so sad to see her go but I know she is in a better place

If he has hard stool maybe feeding him a little canned pumpkin will help bulk it and soften it up. The fiber from the pumpkin will help things move along easier on the same theory as the Metamucil.
