Determining if your cat is constipated requires looking at some symptoms and behaviors. Here are some signs that your cat may have a constipation problem:
1. Reduced defecation frequency: If you observe that your cat’s defecation frequency is significantly reduced, such as not having a bowel movement for more than two days, this may be a sign of constipation.
2. Abnormal defecation posture: When the cat tries to defecate, it has abnormal posture, such as squatting but not defecating, or the abdomen is tight.
3. Hard or dry feces: Pay attention to whether the cat’s feces is abnormally dry and hard, which may form small pieces or strips.
4. Pain in mouth opening or meowing: Cats may open their mouth or make meowing sounds when they feel pain during defecation.
5. Excessive licking or vomiting: Cats may lick their fur excessively due to discomfort and frequently vomit, which may also be related to constipation.
If you observe these signs, it is recommended to take your cat to the veterinarian for a check-up as soon as possible. Your veterinarian will perform a detailed physical examination and may order X-rays, blood tests, or other further tests to confirm the diagnosis of constipation and provide appropriate treatment recommendations. Remember, early consultation with your veterinarian is the best course of action when it comes to cat health issues.
