My cat, Bastet, is only 10 years old but she developed some pretty severe constipation. I noticed she was becoming lethargic and throwing up so I took her to the emergency vet. Her colon was really blocked and the vet admitted her to the hospital. Over two days they gave her 3 enemas and she passed most of the stool.
When I brought her home she was much more active and happy…but she still wasn’t pooping. In fact it was two days later and not a poop in sight even though she has been playful and eating well.
I took her back to my regular vet. He examined her and said she still had one big piece in her colon. He gave her another enema and then—about 30 minutes later—another one.
She immediately passed a little bit of formed stool—but not “The Big One”—not yet. It’s been about 3 hours now. I’m home. She is visiting the litter box frequently and dropping goopy poop/water but “The Big One” remains elusive.
She is eating and drinking. A little tired but nothing too out of the ordinary. I’m just so worried. Has anyone had a similar experience? Any advice. I just want her to poop I’m so worried.
I give her Miralax in her food now. I water her can food down. No dry food. And I give 1 ml of Lactulose (or however you spell it) twice a day. I don’t know what else to do. Experience and thoughts much appreciated.
