Please help - any advice appreciated I am so sad and worried. This all started right after she was spayed back in September.

Thank You
colitis is tough to cure she was probably stressed from spay and it is stress colitis. Here are some things you can do first did vet give you tylan powder or metronidazole? I would use probiotics 2 hrs after antibiotic and mix in a tiny bit of organic pumpkin. Also i would feed steamed white rice mixed into food as that will firm them up as well. What are you feeding? Did you switch foods after spay? what is fiber content? Too much fiber can be bad for colitis that is why i would only use a little pumpkin as that is fiberous. When my girl had it real bad and was vomitting and diarhea i soaked her kibble to keep her from vomitting it up as colitis is when the intestinal tract is inflamed and if vomitting the whole intestinal tract is inflamed if only diarhea then just large intestines is inflamed. What food are you feeding? I know it is no fun as my girl had it after she had metacam so did they give you metacam after the spay as that could have messed her up as my girl was messed up from nsaid metacam Were you giving it mid meal ? as nsaids can damage the lining of stomach if given on empty stomach and if given with any steroids
