My cat can only have really one type of food (fancy feast wet food) that sits well with his stomach otherwise he gets constipated, and he is really constipated right now to where he is meowing in pain which usually happens
Constipation in cats can indeed be quite uncomfortable and even painful, as you've observed with your feline friend. Given that your cat has a sensitive stomach and can only tolerate Fancy Feast wet food, it's essential to manage his diet with care.
Firstly, ensure your cat is well-hydrated. While wet food does contribute to his hydration, you might also consider adding a little extra water to his meals to further increase his fluid intake.
Incorporating a small amount of canned pumpkin (plain, not spiced) into his diet can also be beneficial. Pumpkin is high in fiber and can aid digestion. Start with a teaspoon and observe if it helps improve his condition.
Encouraging your cat to engage in more physical activity can also be helpful. Play and movement can stimulate bowel movements, so try to get him to play more often.
Given that your cat is meowing in pain, it's vital to address this issue promptly. If these home remedies don't provide relief within 2~3 day, or if his condition worsens, please take Turbo to a vet. They can offer more specific treatments and ensure there isn't a more serious underlying issue.
If you have any further questions, please don't hesitate to ask. Thank you.
