What was the reason you took him off the original costco food he was getting?
Did these symptoms start before or after you changed food?
Have you tried him back on the original food to see how his digestive tract reacts?
Did the vet feel the cats stomach, digestive tract & colon to feel if there is a blockage? Sometimes the cat can have hard poop or a foreign object stuck in the colon and the diarrhea, mucus & blood could still leak out around it.
If this is a case of IBS switching foods often will only aggravate the issue since each of the foods may have different ingredients that cause different reactions.
