So, I've been holding out on you guys. I got the grey kit I was considering about a week ago. I got pellets and hay with him, and have been slowly switching him over to what I feed. Now, he's a lionhead, so he's a little puff ball, and when I got him, he had some poo stuck to his bottom. Normal looking poos, it looked like either he had been sitting in his own waste, or they simply got tangled in all the fluff. I've been checking daily, and every day he's had a couple of poos stuck to his bum. I put a fresh layer of hay in his litter box several times a day, to make sure he's not picking them up by laying on them, and it doesn't really bother me to pick them off for him. It's become part of our daily routine.
Today, I pick him up, and he's got this weird clump of poos stuck to him. They're about a quarter of his normal poo size, and were all gathered together, almost into a poo log. You can clearly see that they're different poos all stuck together, they're normal consistency, not wet or runny, just small and all clumped together. I immediately thought it was diarrhea, and googled images, but found nothing like what he's got going on. He had the one poo log stuck to him, and I found another in his cage, and I'm waiting to see if he's going to produce any more. He did also have some normal poos stuck to his fur as well, and I don't know which was produced first.
Anyone got any thoughts? Advice?
