Looking good Nelli!!

 

I hope Nelli was able to poop and is feeling better. Sending prayers.

 

The link in your opening message is to a SS, not the previous condo How is Nelli’s constipation?

 

@Marje and Gracie , think I finally fixed link to Nelli SS ; >sending greenies to Nelli, I am !!!

 

How's Nelli doing ?

 

NELLI Constipation...


The Vet Rx’d a “motility” Drug for Nelli to be taken every day.
After reading and trying to digest Felineconstipation.org I would rather not have Nelli take a pill to keep her poop moving down the shoot I am a bit confused though regarding the fiber I should add to her raw diet- “their gut bacteria, do better with low-to-moderately fermentable fiber sources.”
I learned suitable fiber is: beet fiber and rice bran. Then, amongst others... pumpkin, green bean, peas, SEB.
My confusion lies with how many different ones of these at same feeding?… I wonder is it best to alternate different ones on a daily basis? Of course I wouldn’t shoot her up with all of the suitable fibers I listed above

Made a horrible mistake last night. Two RX bottles next to each other on Nelli‘s shelf in cabinet- same size from same vet, each have quartered pills in them. I gave her, by mistake a appetite stimulant pill Then, did give her the right one, the motility drug.
What a nightmare this was… Of course she was up and hungry all night! Finally, (tested her first, +9) then fed her a full 2 ounces of raw. 2.5 hours later we were back on track ,

Thanks you ALL for your interest and continued support in Nelli

 

Sorry report took so long

 

There was no rush, I just wanted to make sure everything was OK. So many different things to try, but you'll see what's working best for her . You're doing so good at handling all this for your sweet little girl!

 

I hope you can find the right thing for Nelli to keep things moving. Sending prayers.

 

The constipation thing is such a balancing act. Good luck with it. There is such contrary things I have read about pumpkin......I used to give it daily and stopped. I have Bubba on 1/8 tsp twice a day of miralax and an 1/8 of a capsule of a Natural Moves supplement. I am hoping that the Natural Moves will kick in again ( I used to give daily and he stopped eating his food with it in , but doing okay now) and I will stop the miralax.

Sigh. I feel your pain.

 

Nelli had a good poop AGAIN tonight.
I just, JUST dont want to (have to) keep her on motility DRUG :-|
Do you get this?

 

That’s working now but can you please put the link to yesterday’s condo in your first post for today? Thank you!
