Ha, Punkmeister - sometimes I call him that too. So yesterday no magnesium, just a little Miralax. Today, hardly anything in the box, just a little, soft, but somewhat formed, cigar butt shape #2. He has had pure liquid coming out and not sure if it's due to a big "cork" or simply too much...

@Dr. Jeff, @Dr. Christina @Dr. Jean Hofve, thanks for getting back. You wrote, The constipation may be sort of waxing and waning, that is, when he doesn't eat much, there's not much poop buliding up. Then again there can be a sort of "cork" effect, with something like you helped pull out of him...

Hi @Dr.Jeff and @@Dr. Christina, I looked up the distinction between "classical" homeopathy and just, "homeopathy," and my understanding is that a classical homeopath will only prescribe one preparation or remedy at a time instead of multiple remedies. Is this correct? And, how does a layperson...

@Dr. Christina @Dr. Jean Hofve @Dr. Jeff It is now Wed., Thanksgiving eve and hardly any litter box action...I did make an appointment with Dr. Marnin Forman, but the earliest we could see him is Dec. 16. Amazingly his BEAM is better than it was yesterday, he's more alert, more social and ate...

Hi Dr. Jeff, Thanks so much for your response. So, this is the second time, that as soon as I wrote on the forum, there was litter box action. This time it was not as productive as the last time - he was indeed, constipated and I had to help him pull it out. It was fairly dry and hard, but he...

addendum: This past week, until the last 2 days - he tried t go to the bathroom, get into the box and bear down and try. Does this mean peristalsis is working? Last 2 days, he's stopped even trying. Is he just shutting down? What can this mean? Thanks...

whoops, that seemed to send on it's own. Dr. Seo now seems to think that a stone might be lodged in the bile duct.. This is more emergent I think, than his horrible cancer. Dr. Seo reluctantly prescribed Ursodiol. Most recently, he had me giving Punk Guna Lympho Detox, Christopher's S-INFX, Bark...

Ok, it's Saturday night. I had Punk on Metoclopramide and it worked for 2 days. Truth be told the 3rd day, I thought my husband gave him the first dose and he thought I did (we now have a chart) so he missed one dose. Since then, he has not moved his bowels. Last one was around Nov. 17. He's...

Thank you!

I did consult with someone virtually a couple of times. Dr. Seo in Fairfield County has given me some homeopathic remedies...Thanks.

Punkin says, thanks! Your explanation makes sense. Thanks very much. Dr. Seo recommended along with a particular diet, spleen and calf or chicken (fattier, so he preferred calf) liver. Can anyone recommend a place where I can find pasture raised, organic spleen and calf liver? Maybe I'm being...

Thanks so much for getting back. BUT...SUCCESS! Tonight I got home earlier than usual. We got into bed together and we had a talk...;) And while I told him why he really needed to poop, I gently rubbed his belly, which was sure distended and not as soft as it should be. I spent a lot of time...

He also took an XRay and ultra sound and there seem to be no blockages. He's just full up... Thanks again.

@Dr. Christina @Dr. Jean Hofve @Dr. Jeff Hi all, I really appreciate your replies. I've been so overwhelmed and busy, that i haven't had time to reply and update. I wound up going to see...

Hi Dr. Hofve, Thank you so much for your reply on a Sunday night! I'm sorry, I hit "reply" few times, not seeing where to post my reply, and so your post has been repeated multiple times. Whoops. Punkin is on Prednisolone, .5 mls., and has been for a few months now. The only thing you didn't...

@Dr. Christina @Dr. Jean Hofve @Dr. Jeff My male cat came with the name "Punkin," but we often call him Punk. Lately, he's Punkin because he doesn't have the energy to be a punk...We rescued him from a colleague that died at home. This was a huge trauma because when one dies at home, police...
