Oh gosh no! Thanks for responding (I was indeed distracted - darn this whole work thing). You're right on the money with your advice, I think that amount of Metamucil (which is the same thing as psyllium husk, Linda) is dangerous in this situation, especially with a dry high fibre diet already in the mix. Instead of trying to increase the amount of fibre in this cat's diet, the focus needs to be on increasing the water content.
