Hi all, my 16yrs old cat is having constipation for the first time in his life and it is about a week now. He is only about to push out about an inch a day and no sign of improvment, over the last week his leg weaken alot and to the point that I need to find a way to get it out.

Vet bill is not an issue but I don't think kitty can handle the visit anymore. While I am searching I come across with this thread.

http://www.thecatsite.com/forums/sho...t=constipation

And "the food lady" wrote a detail instruction on how to give water enema, since I havn't done it before is it safe for me to try?

And 50cc looks like alot for a cat.

Any advise?
