Cat Forum / General Topics / June 2006Constipated cat!!?
Hi all One of my cats has been displaying strange behaviour since yesterday and it's worrying me. She has been constantly mewing and seemingly unable to pee or crap. I'm not sure which she is trying to do but she is not successful. 15 minutes later she will try again. Obviously she is going to the vets this afternoon but in case it's merely constipation does anyone know of a natural constipation cure for cats? Other than the symptoms described above she looks healthy, her coat and eyes are good. TIA it might not be constipation, it might be a UTI and she is blocked, which is DEADLY. Blocking doesn't happen as often in females, but it can. Get her into a vet ASAP. > Hi all > One of my cats has been displaying strange behaviour since yesterday [quoted text clipped - 6 lines] > and eyes are good. > TIA > Hi all > One of my cats has been displaying strange behaviour since yesterday [quoted text clipped - 6 lines] > and eyes are good. > TIA Keep us updated!

Please let us know what the vet says about your cat.

I haven't really noticed a big difference. My cats get both. Although, one of my younger cats gets diahhrea from certain canned foods, particularly beef varities, which we now avoid.

SignatureWayne Boatwright @¿@¬ _____________________ You should be VERY concerned here. My last cat Zero had the same symptoms as your cat. It turned out he had 6 bladder stones and one was blocking his urinary tract. It was too late for anything but radical surgery and I had to make the decision to put him down. I hope you have better luck than me. >You should be VERY concerned here. My last cat Zero had the same symptoms as >your cat.

I hope you have better luck than me. Hi all and thanks for the advice. I would have responded earlier but I had to go away and my partner is not computer friendly. Anyway Missy (the cats name) is fine. Later on that day she had a crap and is back to her normal but moany self. We gave her wet food which she loved but made her sick. I put that down to the sudden change of food as she normally has dried food which she is now back on. Although she is obviously better I will still be taking her to the vet for a check up. Thanks again. |
