My 21-year-old kitten is having constipation problems because her intestine has slowed down. Now it is getting bad and her little legs can not take her straining. She is also vomiting when she strains so hard. Is there something else I can give her to help?
The Maris formula has herbs which stimulate peristalsis, the movement of the intestines that helps push stool along. For a kitty her age, boosting her immune system with Natures Immuno and potentially adding in something like Yucca, because she likely has some degree of arthritis at such an advanced age would also be beneficial. Keeping her well hydrated is also very important for helping her pass stool. You can add water to her food or even provide her with a water fountain to encourage her to drink more.
