My cat was ok till this afternoon. She refused her new diet and the I gave
her her old food and she still did not eat it. The nearest emergency clinic
is 60 miles away. She is salivating from the mouth and is constipated. She
starts to squat for a minute and can not evacuate any facial matter. Are
there any vets here or any one that can help - I took her to the vet
yesterday and she get well until a few hours ago. If you refer to my earlier
post you will know what she is going through and what I have done.

Please Advise

Dave

Get in the car, and take your cat to the emergency clinic--60 miles is
not that long of a drive--I drive that every day. Your cat could have
what is called a mega colon--believe me, it is nothing to fool around
with.

Bundle up kitty, get moving, and get to the clinic pronto. What are
you waiting for??

I wouldn't know where to begin to diagnose, i'd get her to the local
animal hospital where they can do that 24/7.
