    Inflamed intestines? Something like a feline version of colitis or morbus crohn? Or maybe really an allergic reaction to something?

    Hope the medicine will help him soon!

    He didn't say exactly what it was from. He's going to call me with the results of the fecal today to rule out any parasites.

    It seemed to be a temporary thing.

    No wonder he was uncomfy going to toilet!

    Glad he will be ok.

    I've been so busy at work I haven't had much time to respond. I'm glad it wasn't anything too serious. Did he have parasites that caused the inflammation?
    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

    Not sure yet. But if I were to guess, I would chaulk it up to nerves.

    He's a very, very sweet boy and not afraid of the cats. But he's VERY skiddish around other people unless I'm there ( ). I had to carry him to the back room today, he was just too scared to allow anyone else that privilege.

    I remember you saying that before, that you're so similar. That's funny because I always said the same thing about me and Tubby. I have acid reflux so I have to take a pill similar to Pepcid everyday, and Tubby has to take his Pepcid everyday too. Like mother like son I guess.

    I'm so glad you finally found out why he's having such a problem. Hopefully all the meds and food will do their thing and he'll be better in no time.

    Speaking of like mother like son - I haven't made it to "General" yet, wasn't your follow up appt today?

    Poor Micah. Good thing he has an attentive mommy who can empathise.

    He's such a beautiful cat.

    Please get well sweet Micah! Maybe you were having sympathy pains for your Mommy.

    Prayers coming your way for good health for both of you.
    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand and strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming WOO HOO - What a Ride!
