Rinny is supposed to get two medications, several times a day. The LACTULOSE is liquid and I give him 2cc orally 3 times a day. No problem, and when the bottle is used-up I will switch to 1/4 tsp. MiraLax for that one. The problem is the CISAPRIDE tabs. I crush them and mix it into his wet food, but he wont touch it. In fact, he wont eat right now and skipped breakfast. So I am going to mix the crushed and powdered tabs into some chicken broth and give it to him orally with a plastic hypo, like the LACTULOSE, right in the kisser. The stench is diminishing. He still stinks but the wet butt and tail have dried so the stink isnt so widespread. I will give him another butt shampoo today. Last night I tried to trim off some of the bad poopy hair under his tail and around his butt. I only got a hand full until he slashed me good. I will keep trying that, a little each day. It is hard for one person to do. I did watch him evacuate a good-sized tootsie roll last night. Thats good.
