Hi All!
Been feeding my cat commercial raw food for about 4 1/2 years. I think she has been constipated for all this time. Her stool is very small and dry. She goes everyday she has a hard time getting it out. My vet suggested Metamucil which worked for a time but then upset her stomach. I then tried slippery elm but it does not seem to change anything. She didn't care for pumpkin in her food either! Yesterday I bought some salmon oil thinking this may help but she acted like I was trying to poison her with it! I know there is a lot of bone in these foods but she ate RadCat for years and had the same problem. RadCat was using egg shell instead of bone. She is about 6 years old. So, if anyone has any other ideas please let me know! Thanks!
