No poops from Tiger

Usually Tiger presents large (and smelly) poops. For the last two days
I have seen very little. He is eating and acting normal. I gave him
some Laxatone on a plate (which he seems to like) in the hopes that this
will get things moving.

Weigh him. The same thing happened with my Beauty and she had an
infection anmd lost weight.

If you think he may be constipated or blocked, try giving him a
massage. Years ago, I had a cat who was growling, and it got worse
when I touched her belly. I took her to the vet, and he felt for any
problems and found nothing. But she felt better and pooped half an
hour after getting home. Years later, she had a couple similar events.
Not growling yet, but obviously in discomfort and trying to use the
litter box. So, I massaged her bell, gently, for a good 10-15 minutes.
Each time, within an hour, she used the litter box and showed no more
problems.

My vet also said that as they get older, their system doesn't work as
well, so she did get some laxatone a few days a week to help her
system run more smoothly.

Last night, just before I went to bed, Tiger pooped. I guess the
Laxatone worked and I know he isn't blocked.

The way the world is today, it's a wonderful thing that our main worry
is whether our cat poops or not. I'm right there with you.
carry on. MLB

Were you feeding her dry kibble or a good canned cat food?

I feed canned food twice a day and have dry food available. So, they
eat a good mix. I had Kira for 12 years, and she had 3 of these
occurrences over that time.
