How should I feed it, can I sprinkle it over their raw food? How much should I give and for how long?

Not normal, but fairly common.

It sounds like they still need balancing of their microbiome.

Patience and perseverance pays off Bettina.

And what do you think here @Dr. Jeff ?

This looks fine. It recommends 1/4 rounded tsp but if you're feeding in meals just split that between them, you can mix into the food.

Then you wait... see how they do, what the response is. If it keeps working, keep giving it!

My female cat's feces are still quite thin. And I was wondering if she could have the same problem again, the anal gland not being emptied properly. I asked the vet about it and she said it was a good idea to give some fiber, she recommended psyllium.
What do you think about it?
Like as Medical Medium friendly advice as possible, thanks

Is she straining? Gassy? Tender tummy? Grumpy? Poor BEAM? Why do you think it is a problem?

No to all your questions.

When I went to the vet on Tuesday for a health check and blood test, the vet said that it was good that my cat was getting more fiber, so her stools will be thicker, so she can empty her anal glands properly.

I guess I don't understand the question. She is already getting fiber in the probiotics, she isn't having any problems, it sounds like the vet is okay with how she's doing; why do you want to change it?

She still just have the thin stool. The vet say the probiotic was not enough. And therefore the vet say i should add in more fiber .

About the probiotic. I did give it two weeks Should i start on that again , and should i give it every day until the bottle is finish?
