feline elimination behavior, lack of

[firecat]

My cat won't poop. :-(


He won't eat either, which hasn't happened before.

I've tried pumpkin, metamucil, lactulose (but only the small dose the vet recommended, not the really large dose), petromalt, catnip, brushing, and rocking him.

He is a little more lethargic than usual (he's extremely lazy in general) but still responsive to attention in the usual ways.

I have an enema that is supposed to be safe for cats, but he gets understandably cranky about people sticking things up his butt, so I don't know if it would be safe for me to administer it...

he's trying, and at this point he's eliminating a little bit (but apparently still has a partial blockage) and he's eating a little bit and keeping food and water down.

vet appointment tomorrow morning. (i figured even if he did come unstuck, i want to check out what's going on.)

that's an awesome resource, thanks!
