my female cat (4yrs) got a broken fang removed on thursday, may 11. the vet told me it is normal for her to not have a bowel movement for a couple days due to the anesthesia and pain medications she was on. she had one bowel movement on saturday, may 13. it was quite large and wet but still solid. however, she has not had another one since. that means she is approaching 3 days with no poop. she is urinating like normal, eating like normal and only eating wet food currently.
when i asked the vet about it, she said she would not be concerned unless my cat doesnt poop by the end of the week. that would mean 6 days without a bowel movement if i waited and she doesnt go. does this seem normal? i am considering taking my cat to another vet if she doesnt go by tomorrow morning just to make sure.
the vet reccomended adding pumpkin to her diet, and when i mentioned miralax she said she would rather wait and let things happen naturally.
