Unless they do a bioposy then we can't diagnose for sure it's IBD, but the vet sure feels the signs are pointing in that direction (given this is the second time this year he's having such issues).

Am I to assume that I really am better off using a hydrolized protein in this case and that may be the thing that works for him? As much as I have my beliefs, etc - at the end of the day, I want what is going to work for the kitty so he doesn't have to do another overnighter at the vet and feel such discomfort

I appreciate the well wishes - it's so hard having a sick pet.
