My vet diagnosed my 2 year old with colitis today.. she has been having soft/liquidy poops on and off since last Tuesday.. Yesterday she was fine and her poop was normal.. today, it was loose again.. He said specifically she had Low Fiber Colitis.. and said it would help if we added fiber to her diet.. He suggested adding either unprocessed bran (if i could find it) to her meals or bran wafers.. But I have read on here that a lot of people add canned pumpkin?? If so, how much??
The other thing he suggested was feeding Hill's W/D.. She is eating Nutro Senstive Stomach right now... I know Nutro isn't the best food.. but she has had no problems with it (until now). Everytime we try to change her food, she throws up.. And we only add 1/4 cup of the new food to the Nutro when we have tried to switch.
Anyone have any experience with Colitis???
I don't wanna add too much fiber bc I read that can lead to gas and bloat.. and bloat terrifies me.. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!! Its soo frustrating to look at her and not know what I can do to help her =(
