Clinical Nutritional Management of Constipation in Cats

Constipation is characterized by retention of hard feces within the colon and rectum with, infrequent, or difficult defecation. Constipation progresses to obstipation as feces become excessively hard and impacted within the colon. Megacolon refers to dilation and hypomotility of the colon, which results in severe constipation and may be caused by colonic smooth muscle or neurologic abnormalities.
