After a cat is constipated, pet owners should take the cat to the veterinarian for a physical examination. If the cat’s constipation is not serious, you can add mashed pumpkin or butter pumpkin to the cat’s food to increase the fiber content in the diet. To help the cat defecate, you can also give the cat medication according to the veterinarian's requirements, or artificially assist the cat to defecate through enema or injection of sedatives. When a cat's constipation lasts for a long time and the condition is serious, it is necessary to use sedatives or general anesthesia to clean the intestines and defecate. Pet owners must also pay attention to their cats’ drinking water during daily feeding. Drinking too little water can also cause constipation in cats.
