my cat hasn't pooped in 5 days... what should I do?

Question

I just cleaner her litter box and found no poop, only urine. She's eating just fine, but hasn't pooped. Is there a way I can get her to poop?

Answer 1

Give her a dollop of butter to get the works going again.

Answer 2

She probably needs to eat some grass to get her digestive system going.

Offer some grass to her or just mix it into her wet food. You can buy cat grass at the pet store or, if you have an outside, just get a handful of grass from the yard.

Also, if you've been feeding her only dry food and she hasn't had any liquids (=water) then she is probably constipated. Switch to wet food for a while and then try to mix up her diet a bit. Alternate wet and dry foods. Keep it interesting for your cat and for your cat's digestive system.

Answer 3

once when my mother brought home my brother my cat was all depressed and did poop in other places.Or your cat could have found a favourite place and poops around there now or if its a outdoor cat it could poop in the garden then bury it or poop outside at your neighbours lol!

Answer 4

Double check to make sure she hasn't gone somewhere else. If not, make an appt. to take her to the vet, there could be some kind of intestinal blockage. In the future you could try giving her Laxatone if she is prone to constipation and hairballs.

Answer 5

Hi, well 5 days is to long and should really be checked out with the vet, there are lots of things that they can do to help. try to go as soon as you can, they will know what to do.
