I was just having my dinner too

stop blaming it on poor lexy

Kittybabe (Ruth) · « **Reply #65 on:** June 13, 2007, 23:15:22 PM »

Yes she's currently killing the feather boa. Don't have the heart to tell her its bed time.

She's windy too so me thinks Lexy is sleeping in the living room tonight.

Tiggy's Mum · « **Reply #64 on:** June 13, 2007, 23:13:38 PM »

Phew

Thanks for that Ruth, lovely image

Does she seem better in herself aswell?

DaveD · « **Reply #63 on:** June 13, 2007, 23:12:37 PM »

What a charming image!

Seriously, glad she seems to be OK!

Kittybabe (Ruth) · « **Reply #62 on:** June 13, 2007, 23:08:27 PM »

11.04pm ladies and gentlemen. A HUGE poo was delivered. Of the good variety.

Gill (sneakiefeline) · « **Reply #61 on:** June 13, 2007, 18:35:51 PM »

I hopes that Miss Lexy has decided its time to get back to normal

Kittybabe (Ruth) · « **Reply #60 on:** June 13, 2007, 15:40:32 PM »

Went out and got some FAGAIL chicken in jelly and madam ate some. She's now esconced on her radiator bed fast asleep.

clarenmax · « **Reply #59 on:** June 13, 2007, 14:52:45 PM »

I know Max is certainly eating less in the daytime when its warmer, but more at night when its cooler I guess.

DaveD · « **Reply #58 on:** June 13, 2007, 14:37:54 PM »

A lot of people have noticed they're cats have lost their appetites lately due to the warm weather, so this could be an additional factor.

Kittybabe (Ruth) · « **Reply #57 on:** June 13, 2007, 12:10:48 PM »

Yes mix between English and Belgian. More English! Hard.

She's drinking her water well not excessively so though.

She is still not as hungry as she should be so her food is there waiting.

Teresa Pawcats · « **Reply #56 on:** June 13, 2007, 12:06:32 PM »

Perhaps a pic would have been a good idea after all, colourwise hope you mean Belgium rather than English mustard, if it was all very hard expect more. Madam needs to increase her fluid intake, will she allow you to increase wet food and reduce dry ?

Enjoy Dallas must be almost 30 years since i`ve seen it.

Only disappear if its to somewhere pleasant.

Kittybabe (Ruth) · « **Reply #55 on:** June 13, 2007, 11:36:34 AM »

Well they were tiny, hard and mustard coloured. T - is this ok? she's never been constipated before like this so have no idea what to expect.

Sitting back with Dallas on the telly and a coffee. Al picking up his stuff later so getting ready to disappear. Gotta watch Dallas first tho!!

JackSpratt · « **Reply #54 on:** June 13, 2007, 11:31:41 AM »

Hurrah! She poo'd!

I second the "no pictures of poo" motion. (Geddit?!

) Even if they're especially magnificent.

Glad cuddling has recommenced.

Kittybabe (Ruth) · « **Reply #53 on:** June 13, 2007, 09:59:50 AM »

I believe I am in good books.

No photos I promise. But if I get a magnificent looking one I make no promises!

Its like she knew. Make mum stay home from work = don't poop.

Strange T. No funny smells yet. I will not jinx this!!

Teresa Pawcats · « **Reply #52 on:** June 13, 2007, 09:33:58 AM »

Ruth the best advice I can offer is:
1- stock up on air freshner
2- Please do not post pics of any magnificent plops

On a serious note pleased things are getting better

I'm not suprised she's reluctant to go..she knows you are going to discuss her very private body functions on here

Glad that Madam Lexy is getting a bit better Ruth

Are you in her good books today then?

Hooorayyyy!! Those vibes must have worked!!! She dropped 2 very small plops in the litter tray a minute ago! Keep em coming its working!!

CurlyCatz · « **Reply #46 on:** June 13, 2007, 09:11:31 AM »

yes desley is correct..lactulose and lactose 2 totally seperate things.

lactulose is NOT a laxative but is a stool softener, it does not get absorbed at all which makes it very safe..i am sure there is something about long term use of liquid parrafin and some of it being absorbed or something that makes it less suitable ????

Lactualose is what they give wee babies for the very reason it can be gentle and extremely safe

clarenmax · « **Reply #45 on:** June 13, 2007, 09:04:40 AM »

Lets start a chant........ altogether now ....... poo poo poo

Susanne (urbantigers) · « **Reply #44 on:** June 13, 2007, 09:02:53 AM »

Sending poo vibes...

clarenmax · « **Reply #43 on:** June 13, 2007, 08:50:03 AM »

Aw, glad she's coming round ...... now all we need is that poo

Kittybabe (Ruth) · « **Reply #42 on:** June 13, 2007, 08:36:14 AM »

Well she's chirpier this morning. No poos yet but I got another wee a few mins ago.

I'm off to the chemist to get some lactulose. I changed the litter completely just in case but let's hope today is the day!

Madam woke me up and came for a cuddle so I think I am no longer satan as far as she is concerned! Yay!

Desley (booktigger) · « **Reply #41 on:** June 13, 2007, 08:08:18 AM »

lactulose isn't milk based, it is a very syrupy liquid, and even fussy Miss Molly who wont entertain anything is fine with it in her food.

Ellie · « **Reply #40 on:** June 12, 2007, 19:03:22 PM »

Hi honey sorry to hear Lexy hasn't had a poo yet

cats eh you gotta love them

Lexy hurry up and do a nice big poo to make your Mummy feel better

and if you are a really good girl and give your Mummy lots of purrs and headbutts I won't send the boys down to visit

Seriously though I send both you and Lexy lots of love and hugs and have everything crossed for her results on Thursday

xxxx

I recommend the addition of alcohol and chocolate. Everything seems better when they're in the picture.

Icecream is out and alcohol is on the side.

Who knew they could worry us so much!

Gill (sneakiefeline) · « **Reply #38 on:** June 12, 2007, 18:23:35 PM »

Ohhhhhhhhhh I see she hates milk, well that is that for milk then

I am sure she will have to use tray soon but mine held out for a long time when they have been upset and also Ducha after his op. Also the sedation will prob not help either.

Susanne you want to come down here and wag your finger at her? Its not working with me doing it..

Well I am in finger wagging mode today as both Jaffa and Mosi have decided they're not keen on natures menu beef flavour (fine with the other flavours) but I've been insisting they eat it as I refuse to throw it out. They both eventually decided that it tasted much better out of the other's bowl.

Quote from: Kittybabe (Ruth) on June 12, 2007, 18:17:33 PM

So ok, I'll have my take away and not worry.

Vet just off phone with me. Says not to worry.

Much.

Gill, she won't eat anything with milk in it. She hates it. THe lactulose I think is the same thing so lets hope she poops before because I REALLY DO NOT WANT to have to give her an enema.. Even the vet won't give it to her... Lexy has developed a dislike for her.. I wonder why!

Gill (sneakiefeline) · « **Reply #35 on:** June 12, 2007, 18:15:13 PM »

I think condensed milk maybe tastes nicer

Susanne (urbantigers) · « **Reply #34 on:** June 12, 2007, 18:14:43 PM »

Aw cmon Lexy - stop worrying your meowmy so much! Do a nice, big poop!

I hope the test results are all fine and she is just throwing a strop.

Kittybabe (Ruth) · « **Reply #33 on:** June 12, 2007, 18:11:08 PM »

I've tried to give her the watered down milk but she's not wanting it.

Vet is suggesting Microlax or Lactulose if nothing by tomorrow. She says another 24 hours without and then we will revisit. Since she doesn't appear to WANT to poop we won't worry much...well I will but Caroline seems to think Madam is just showing me what she thinks of me.

Oh well..

Gill (sneakiefeline) · « **Reply #32 on:** June 12, 2007, 18:03:15 PM »

I hope all the tests come bak with good results................I reckon she is sulking

My vets said an old fashioned way to help constipation...............in cats!!...............is a teaspoon of carnation condensed milk watered down. I gave it to Ducha on their instructions after his dental and he wouldnt touch it then in the night lapped it all up and was moaning for more every night......seemed to work cos he started using the litter tray again.

Sad but had to throw most of can away cos I love it but it defo on the banned list

Littlebobo · « **Reply #31 on:** June 12, 2007, 17:02:36 PM »

Poor baby ..I do hope that she starts perking up soon ..

Hugs to you and Lexy xx

Kittybabe (Ruth) · « **Reply #30 on:** June 12, 2007, 16:58:33 PM »

No Lisa not really.

She does her cute bits but she's not chirping at me and she's just laying there. She chases her toys if I push them at her, but she gets annoyed quickly. Patience heh..

Littlebobo · « **Reply #29 on:** June 12, 2007, 16:54:00 PM »

Bless her little madam sure that there will be something soon enough how is she acting now though does she seem any better in her self ?

Kittybabe (Ruth) · « **Reply #28 on:** June 12, 2007, 16:41:21 PM »

No not yet. She's just teasing me.
