Sadie had the first dose of Lactulose today. The first dose is always easy. I'd love to have her get her hydration from her food and her water, she does drink water, and get her off this stuff. Right now she is not yet 100% back to normal, only eating a small bit.

One trick I've never tried is to put her food in one of the other cats' spot. You know how they think the other one is getting something better, even if it is exactly the same thing. This will take some watching but because of the dog we do have gates on the kitchen and one on a room downstairs. We realized they came in handy for a dirty, wet dog as well as a puppy and never took them down.

I have tried to moisten both her canned food and her kibble previously. With home made chicken broth no less, with no salt in it, no fat, just good stuff. No go. The other critters love it of course.
