Constipation Natural Remedies

My 7 month old cats are eating and drinking and acting normal except for the fact they only wet pee once within today and yesterday. I will take them to the vet if I have to. But all I think is they are constipated and need a remedy. Are there any safe all natural remedies i can use to help them!!

thank you to all who answer in advance.

If they also aren't peeing, there could be a dehydration issue. A great natural laxative for cats is canned pumpkin (not pie filling). They like the taste and it seems to move things along well. But if your cats aren't using the bathroom at all, they need more than home remedies.

I am usually constipated and bilieve it is a result of allergies. I have a test coming up in October with a specialist and will discuss this. But in the meantime I need ideas to help me go.

My son has had trouble going to the loo for a poo since he was potty training and has always suffered with constipation although he does not get stomachache and just seems to have a really slow bowel. I give him lots of fresh fruit and fibre. My husband is a chef and I have Crohn's disease so we have a healthy diet. I have been told Flax seed is good - has anyone else tried this or can you recommend anything else I could try??

Hi, my son has same problem. I found that ensuring he has a good fluid intake and takes regular exercise that this helps. Fruit and fibre etc - healthy diet of course. Make sure he makes time to "go". I also found keeping a (discreet) record of bowel movements helpful as it helped to establish a pattern as everybody different. This gave us a warning as to when he was getting constipated and so we could take action. He also did not suffer from tummy aches and was often seriously bunged up before realised.

I am 2 and a half months pregnant and suffer from constipation now and then. I was wondering if there were any natural ways to relieve constipation???

drink milk that helped me but


• Eat high-fiber foods such as cereals, whole-grain breads, and fresh fruits and vegetables every day. Add a couple of tablespoons of unprocessed wheat bran (available at health food stores) to your cereal in the morning and follow it with a glass of water.

• Drink plenty of water — at least six to eight glasses a day. A glass of fruit juice every day, especially prune juice, can also be helpful.

• Exercise regularly. Walking, swimming, riding on a stationary bike, and yoga can all help ease constipation and leave you feeling more fit and healthy.

• Listen to your body. Never put off going to the bathroom when you feel the urge.

• Ask your healthcare provider about taking an over-the-counter fiber supplement or switching to an iron supplement with less iron.

I am frequently constipated even though I eat plenty of fiber, stay hydrated and exercise. My stools are normal size and aren't too hard; I just have a hard time pushing them out. I often feel like I have a full colon and rectum (sorry for the details). I used ex lax a few times with success, but I don't want to become dependent on it. I can't stand prunes by the way. What are some safe remedies for constipation?
