Hi
I've posted before about my lazy cat Iggi who has problems with constipation.
Unfortunately, he loves dry food much more than wet, however he is now on the following routine.
Morning - wet food (under 40g) with tablespoon water
Afternoon - spoonful of canned tuna (in water) with extra water and 1.2ml lactulose (mainly to give him the lactulose)
Evening - dessertspoon 'hypoallergenic', 'natural' complete dry food
Bedtime - wetfood (again under 50g) with tablespoon water and 1/2 teaspoon olive oil.
He is a cat who sometimes overgrooms and he has a flea allergy but is on regular frontline so he shouldn't ever get itchy enough to pull our fur like he used to.
Sometime, like today, he just seems to block up completely. He strains in the litter tray and drags himself across the floor to try and expel the poop.
I can't get him a vets appt today for an enema - which has sorted him out before. He's lethargic and obviously not comfortable. Has anyone got any home remedies to 'help things along'?
Thanks!
