is there any specific bengal cat health problems dealing with bowel dysfunction?

Friday Apr 30, 2010

I have a bengal cat who does not seem to be able to have a bowel movement. The vets cannot find any physical reason for this and if nothing can be discovered soon there is not much hope for the poor guy. Any enlightenment on this would be great. He is on stool softeners which are working and is eating and drinking well and has no blockages and does not have megacolon.

Seek if you have not already a specialist like a small animal internists-or get a second opinion-there is nothing breed specific that comes to mind-have you tried a high fiber diet and obviously lactose(stool softener) and even giving canned pumpkin twice daily. I am shocked that it is not Mega colon because this is very common complaint in cats.Let me know.The only other thing that comes to mind is something neurologically not working right-possibly tumor /brain lesions?Hope not but once again seek a second opinion.
