Constipation
Constipation:
Difficulty
in bowel movement. When it occurs, a change in diet is recommended
(fresh liver has a laxative effect) together with the administration
of a spoonful of vaseline oil or corn oil. Constipation may be caused
at times by the cat's swallowing hair. If the condition is serious
and persistent, surgery may be necessary. Occasional constipation
in aging cats is not unusual, but if it persists, consult your veterinarian.
Prolonged constipation could be a sign of something more serious.
