Most healthy cats pass between one and three bowel motions per week. Some cats do not follow this pattern, but as long as the fasces are soft but well-formed, and the cat is not straining, then there is no indication of constipation.
Prevention and Natural Solutions
If the condition is not relieved quickly, it can cause a serious lifelong disorder called "megacolon" and so in order to prevent constipation, or to treat it effectively we suggest the following action -
-
Provide plenty of fresh "filtered" drinking water.
-
Feed a high-quality natural protein diet rich in fiber and perhaps add a couple of teaspoons of filtered water in daily meals.
-
For some older cats, suffering chronic constipation, add about 1 teaspoon of soaked oatbran to daily meals. Some people add a teaspoon of Olive oil as a natural lubricant.
-
Worm your pet with a ParaExpel "natural homeopathic wormer".
Our Constipation formula is a natural stimulate and aids expulsion within hours of apply the remedy. We will provide a natural diet sheet guide and other helpful information to promote good health without expensive vet bills.
For the elderly, (especially seen in cats) we find our mild herbal laxative "HerbaLax" a better choice as an ongoing bowel tonic and laxative.
