If the cat cooperates, the owner can put the cat in a supine position, and then knead the cat's belly clockwise with his hands to help strengthen its intestinal activity and promote defecation. The action must be gentle and slow to avoid hurting the cat. However, this method may not be useful for cats with severe constipation, so owners need to take other methods to help cats defecate.

Then, let’s take a look at other ways to deal with cat constipation:

1. Tempt the cat to drink more water

If the owner feeds the cat dry and hard cat food for a long time, it will easily cause constipation. Therefore, the owner can let the cat drink more water or eat food with more water content to increase the moisture in the intestines and soften the feces, and then let the cat drink more water or eat food with more water content. When cats defecate, you can add an appropriate amount of probiotics to the water to assist the cat’s gastrointestinal activities and promote defecation.

2. Help cats deal with hairballs

Hairball syndrome is also one of the causes of cat constipation. Owners should pay attention to investigation. If they find that their cat is vomiting and has hair, it may be constipation caused by hairballs in the stomach blocking the intestines. At this time, the owner can feed the cat some cat grass or hair removal cream to help the cat solve the problem of hair ball syndrome, thereby reducing the chance of constipation in the cat.

3. Use Kaiseilu or surgery to remove feces

If there is no improvement after the above measures, the owner should quickly take the cat to the pet hospital for examination. Under the guidance of the pet doctor, use Kesellu to help lubricate the intestines, soften feces, promote feces excretion, or perform surgery. Open the intestines and remove the feces.
