One of our oldest cats, Wilber, is on prednisone for inflamed bowel disease. For most of his life he's been overweight. His weight has ranged from 15-20 lbs. Now we've noticed that he seems to have dropped some weight since being on the predisone. I know with humans, weight gain usually occurs instead of loss. We notice the weight loss primarily in his face and some around the middle. I just wondered if any of your babies ever had a weight loss from predisone?
His eating habits really haven't changed - except for when he gets a stomach ache - then he has the med each day for 5 days, instead of every other day - which usually gets him back on track.
