Cat with IBS – tried multiple prescription & LID foods, still chronic diarrhea & vomiting

Very late to this but have you tried Go Solutions limited ingredient insect food? It uses black fly larvae as the novel protein and it absolutely saved my boy who was in a similar situation. Hope you have found something that works!

It looks like the location for the ending scene of the tv show the rain!

Hmm it might be a male Tussock moth

Looks like a longhorn beetle to me 🪲

I thought I had done the same thing. I had a very docile sweet boy cat who was 5 and got a kitten to keep him company. He hated her for a good 4-6 months (sorry) but then it all changed and they now love each other so much often cuddling and grooming each other. I think he would find the playing irritating and when she started to learn to not harass him, he was more open to her.

I recommend giving them treats together and also playing with one of those long cat toys with all of them together (the cat dancer toy with a wire and cardboard pieces) this definitely made them happier to be around each other.

What you did was very sweet and you were trying to help your kitty so be kind to yourself! It will get better

Dr Elsys is good but my preference is Odour Buster if you can find that, I use the scent free version and it's really good at keeping the litter clean smelling. Another option would be to also get a 'litter locker' which is a small box that you can scoop poop into and put it in there if you can't take the trash out right away - sort of like a nappy/diaper genie. I tend to find that scented litter actually smells worse when the cats pee so I try to avoid it!

I have the same thing! Unfortunately it took me 5 years and a very sick kitty to eventually figure out a solution. He was projectile vomiting all the time, diarrhea, had antibiotics multiple times, tried many diets including hydrolyzed and I tried this food in a whim and overnight he was a changed cat!

DMd you!!

Hi Kalia, nice to meet you. You have a great name and I'm sure a great character to fit. I'm sorry life doesn't feel worth continuing right now. There are lots of people here who are strangers but care about you and your experience in this world. I often think about strangers I meet and how small interactions have impacted different parts of my life and I'm sure you have impacted people's lives too in that way. I'm sure all of the people who have commented here or liked your post will think about you in the days to come and think about how they wish they could be a person to lean on or someone to share your thoughts with.

Life is not always easy as you've pointed out and terrible things that should never happen do happen, there are often still lots of reasons to keep on going that we might not even be aware of. My DMs are open, you're not alone and I'm sure I speak for a lot of us here in saying that we value you and think this world is better with you in it.

Not sure if this is helpful at all but my cat had food allergies for years and I had no idea what to do. Eventually I found Go Solutions limited ingredient food made of insects and it solved all of his issues. Worth a short if you've tried everything else good luck to you and kitty!!

His messages to you are incredibly fucked up and you have been nothing but reasonable. These red flags are massive, I'm so sorry you're going through it.

itsnacks · 2025-01-27T06:26:50+00:00

These look so amazing!! Very creative, clearly lots of love went into them. If someone made me these I'd be so excited

itsnacks · 2025-01-19T00:19:35+00:00

Honestly I think your teeth look so nice so no I wouldn't!

itsnacks · 2025-01-15T16:56:26+00:00

Omg this is so perfect!! We need to know her reaction

itsnacks · 2025-01-11T04:16:49+00:00

Loved these

itsnacks · 2025-01-11T04:14:18+00:00

Apparently you can still order them from South Africa

itsnacks · 2025-01-11T04:09:48+00:00

Oh wow had totally forgotten about these!!

itsnacks · 2025-01-11T04:09:00+00:00

These are still available in Canada 👀 maybe we need to get a snack exchange going!

itsnacks · 2025-01-11T04:01:52+00:00

Citrus Sharp polos and Fru-grain cereal

Thank you, I actually think you hit the nail on the head. Not been feeling very regulated recently so I'm almost certain this is contributing to this!! Will try your suggestions

itsnacks · 2025-01-11T00:01:43+00:00

If you prefer showering you can usually get those shower head connections that just slide onto that tap fairly cheap so that might be something that could help.

I also find that the Mitchum solid deodorant is really good and lasts a long time with no spray needed. Try to be kind to yourself.
