In looking back through previous posts, it appears that it would be OK to put Chocolate Moose on a low dose of prednisolone for possible IBD along with his baby food while I'm waiting for intestinal biopsy results.

Another possibility is that he might have some kind of blockage. I'm not quite sure how I would tell the difference between a blockage and intestinal discomfort. His stools are pretty small in volume with a birdseed-like quality. He looked like he was having some dry heaves this morning.
