Simba
  • Pet's Name: Simba
  • Gender: Male
  • Age: 6
  • Diseases: Megacolon (chronic dilation and atony of the large intestine)
  • Prescribed treatment: Lifetime high-fiber diet (Hill's Gastrointestinal Biome, Royal Canin Gastrointestinal Fiber Response), lactulose supplements, mandatory high moisture intake (wet food or soaked). Bone meal and economy-class foods strictly forbidden (specialized food, lactulose, laxative suppositories, periodic enemas at the clinic, follow-up abdominal X-rays)
  • General Information: The owners thought he was just lazy until Simba stopped eating and screamed in pain. His bowel was impacted to the limit. When the cost of treatment and the lifetime diet were quoted, they left him at the clinic and never returned. Now each of his days is scheduled: strict food, drops in his meal, abdominal massage. He purrs when he is helped to relieve himself, as if thanking them for freeing him from torture
