Tumor removed 20yrs ago

My mum (84yrs) had bowel cancer about 20 years ago, she had the tumour removed, bowel resection, a stoma for a year which was then removed. What is becoming more and more common is a complete loss of control of her bowels. At least once a week she has diarrhoea with no warning. Whilst this has always been something she has been living with, in the last 5 years it is becoming more regular and therefore quite restrictive. She has been checked again by the consultant as few times, no issues at all. Is this something she now has to live with? Its hard to narrow down what triggers it too, but probably worse if she has eaten out, however it is also very unpredictable. Thank you

Sand bath

I was wondering about sand bath management! We have had out lovely gerbils for about 4 weeks. They use the sand bath to clean, but also as a toilet. I've read other gerbils do the same and I was wondering is it best to put in a bit of sand and clear it daily, or put in more sand, clear the larger mess daily and the but only change the sand after a few days. Im using reptile sand so it clumps with the wee. Any advice welcome! Thank you

Connecting cages

Any clever ideas on how to connect 2 glass cages? I want to extend the living space but can't think how to do it! Thanks 😊
