Momo
GL member: Yuugi
Medical thread: Soft droppings

Signs:
Droppings
• Would fluctuate between normal and abnormal droppings
• Some would be tear shaped (these would be more smelly than usual)
• Some seem to crumble easily
• Occasionally droppings would have normal texture but were small
• Some droppings looked stringy
• Most droppings would have a small crater in them
• Began crying when peeing, sometimes while pooping (no blood); had bladder sludge

Diagnostics:
• Multiple x-rays showed no bladder stones
• Urine culture showed no bacteria; found some calcium deposits but nothing that would explain the pain

Diet Changes:
Withheld veggies and slowly reintroduced them when droppings firmed up. Momo’s droppings would go back to being soft and odd shaped. Vet recommended feeding only one veggie at a time for a week in order to determine if one or more were upsetting Momo’s stomach –no conclusions were made. Removing green peppers from her diet seemed to make her digestion issues worse.

Supplements:
• Gave healthy dropping mixed with water via syringe

Medications:
• (5/29/2008) prescribed antibiotics
• (8/20/2008) prescribed 2 drops Metacam for pain

• Had a few cases where teeth were misaligned/overgrown
• Chronic bladder sludge
• Developed mammary gland tumor
• X-ray showed slightly enlarged heart and a pulmonary edema
