Managing a cat with inflammatory bowel disease is detective work: which diet settles things, and how are the meds working? PetHealthLog lets you log the food, medications and supplements alongside vomiting, diarrhea and appetite, so the link between a diet change and the symptoms becomes visible. Free, no account, works offline.
Start tracking - it's freeInflammatory bowel disease (IBD) in cats is managed over the long term, often with a specific diet - a novel-protein or hydrolysed food - plus medication and sometimes supplements. The whole point is to find what settles the gut and keep at it, which means watching how symptoms respond to each change.
That's exactly where memory fails. When a diet trial runs for weeks and symptoms come and go, it's almost impossible to recall whether the new food really reduced the vomiting or whether you just had a good week.
PetHealthLog is free, needs no account and works offline, so logging the diet, the meds and each bout of vomiting or diarrhea builds a timeline where the link between food and symptoms is actually readable.
Add the prescription or trial food, any medication and supplements on one timeline, so a diet change has a clear start date to measure from.
A quick tap records each symptom and how the appetite is, building the trend that tells you whether things are settling.
Because diet and symptoms share one timeline, you can see whether a new food was followed by fewer episodes - the core question in an IBD trial.
Weight is a key signal in IBD - log it regularly so a downward trend is caught early and shown to the vet.
Export a clean diet-and-symptom history so a diet-trial review starts from real data, not recollection.
A prescription diet and any medication for IBD must come from your vet. These are common everyday supporting supplies - match anything you add to your vet's plan.
