Hello everyone,
I have this 11 year old cat, Kitty, who is always constipated. In the last year or so she has had many enimas and is now on a high fibre diet which consists of canned food. Recently she has stopped eating the food and will not even eat kibble. I think she is backed up again and I might have to take her into the vet for some more enimas.
Poor thing, how many can you do to her?! The vet says because she is overweight that she can not push the stool out as well as she use to, she does try her darnest though. They have run blood tests and x-rays on her and everything is normal expect they see big hard stool stuck in her, in the x-ray.
Does anyone know of something I can give her to keep her stool soft? I had thought the high fibre canned food with some warm water would help but now it's not doing anything as she is backup again. I'm stumped on what to give her now. She will now not eat anything because I guess she is uncomfortable, I don't blame her. She was throwing up white bile friday morning but nothing since. She's going into the vet tomorrow.
Anybody have any suggestions for constipated cats?
