I'd rather go the natural routs 1st, like giving pumpkin or sweet potato than drugs. If there's no improvement, off to the vet we go.


I've taken my vet several poopies that looked strange & he never charged me for just taking a look. Of course, they turned out to be nothing serious poopies. One time, their poopies had what looked like white eggs, I thought it was worm eggs & he told me it was rice...asked me if I gave them rice. I did! What a relief that was loll.

Mucus poop can mean that the intestines are inflamed & the lining being expelled. He could've eaten something & caused a tummy upset. I hope he'll feel better soon!




I'm going to try giving him the one ML of Imodium that the vet recommended and if it doesn't work he's definitely going to the vet tomorrow. thanks for thewarm thoughts!
