My kitty is constipated!!?

Question

Can I sprinkle a bit of miralax in her wet food?  

We noticed she was getting heavy, and we changed the litter and there was only pee.  She's acting a bit fussy, nothing too abnormal.  I have NEVER seen her cough up a hairball, and she's 8yo.

The vet runs when my cat comes in.  She's a love with us, beautiful baby, but you're not going too stick that in there, noway, nohow.  We need an easy fix, because she's not going to allow much in the way of manipulation.

Some ideas?

I sprinkle Benefiber in my cat's waterbowl daily and that keeps him normal.

easy fix?
There is no easy fix for something like this

TAKE HER TO THE VET. NOW.

There's a medical reason why she's not pooping. And most likely will need testing.

If you don't want to spend money on her medical care than you shouldn't have a cat.


***** Do not listen to that man telling you to put yogurt and milk in the kitties food. PLEASE do not listen to him.

Go to www.walkervalleyvet.com  for safe over the counter medicines that are safe for cats and dogs. If it is not on the list, DO NOT GIVE IT.

I have used canned pumpkin before (not pumpkin pie filling) for my pomeranian.

All i gotta say is take her to the vet. I have had trouble for years with my old cat .. she refuses to use her litter box.. she prefers our bathroom sink.Cats are fickle for sure.

you need to take your kitty to a vet....there could be an obstruction or tumor...you never know if it is simply "constipation" you need to know why, because it is not normal, dont give your pet ANY meds without consulting a vet first!!!! there are many that are safe for human newborns but deadly to our pets!!! xoxo!!!!!!!!!
