My cat just pooped, and walked out of her litter box with her butt push kind of pushed downward and didnt move for a few seconds. And her tummy was kind of twitching, as was her body. I was sure it was a hair ball, as her upper body jerks before she vomits. But she calmed down after a few seconds, and then went on to clean her butt. I checked, and noticed she had just pooped. I applied petroleum jelly on her paws in case theres a hair ball or constipation. I looked at the box and there was a single poop.
My cat eats homemade cat food that has beef, i have tried switching her away from beef, but she refuses to eat anything else. She tends to get obsessed with foods. Should i force her to go back to chicken? can beef cause issues?
My cat is due for a check up, but i cannot afford it right now.
Is this normal? Should i just keep an eye on her? Or should i ask family for money to take her to the vet?
Do i keep giving her petroleum Jelly in case shes constipated?
Also, I have a silly question, i bought her some of her favorite treats (freeze dried chicken) is it safe to give it to her if shes constipated or having digestion issues?
EDIT: Started googling, and you know how easily the internet scares you. How can i tell if she has worms?
How can i tell if its indigestion from her food, or if its worms? Shes an indoor cat and doesnt go outside for anything.
EDIT 2:
Should i give her diamoteous earth (food grade) just in case she has worms? I have some that i bought last year.
I normally rush my pets to the vet with any issue, but i'm having financial problems right now.
