Another little update. After I stopped the psyllium and resumed the 2nd lactulose dose she didn't poop at all for a little over 48 hours. This morning she finally had a great big poop, very firm and long, another anal gland clearing type, if she needed any additional clearing out.
I'm still watching how she moves like a hawk, at the first sign she's going back to that painful hobble, instead of that free and easy trot, I'm upping the pred again.
So maybe put a reminder on your July calendar to go over the medication regimen with D?
I know, hilarious isn't it? When I was a kid, we used to say the cat's nose was "working overtime" when we saw a cat sniffing the air like that.
I think she cleaned them out, it looks normal now, and I'm going to stop the psyllium and go back to the lactulose. I had company today, just a quiet friend she's known all her life, the friend who took care of her while I was in hospital. But we're both exhausted. Company, even this friend, is exhausting..
