Oscar - tummy problem

Hopefully he feels better, and it's nothing major!

Thanks. I worry just seeing him so uncomfy. He was fine at 12:30 when I left for a computer job.

I have given him two small helpings of Whiskas cat milk mixed with very warm water. The second dose I put a bit of Omega oil in. He inhaled both bowls. I gave them about 1/2 hr apart, about 1/4 c each serving.

I just hope he's ok for the night.

Will update tomorrow.

Thanks.

I'm so sorry to hear this.

He may be constipated. Hopefully he won't need a kitty enema. Do you have any canned pumpkin? If so I'd try to give him some if he'll eat it willingly. My RB Pepper had problems like this and he had to be on lactulose every day which did the trick but he hated the taste of it. I know that older cats need more fiber in their diets. Storm once had this problem but now that he's eating plenty of canned wellness every day he's been fine. I hope that everything will go well at the vets tomorrow. Lots of prayers and positive thoughts are being sent his way.

Oscar is more himself this morning and is not grunting as he walks...his walking is normal and I can pet him all the way down his spine. The tail end was uncomfy for him last night and he was walking kind of hunched.

Even though he came into the bathroom to get his morning pets and has some of his chirp and mutter sounds back, he is not interested in food and is lying in the front hall. Taking him in for a check.

I did cat milk and very warm water last night twice, second time with a bit of the vet's omega oil in it. He seems more comfy, but not 100%. Will take him in to be on the safe side.

Thanks for the good thoughts. Update later.
