Hi there. I've emailed you in the past in regards to my cat, Sola who was diagnosed recently with moderate lymphoplasmacytic IBD. He is on budesonide (1ml/day) and gets ultrasounds every other month to monitor his condition.

I'm emailing because Sola recently started to have very hard, dark stools and constipation from time to time. Our vet recommended we add fibercon to his diet and I've been doing so for about 3 weeks, but he is still having hard, dark stools. I've read that this could indicate melena. What would you recommend I do?
