[quote=Anonymous]My cat has Megacolon. It started as just constipation. It took me a while to realize what was going on, because I thought it was behavioral. But it was about when he was 6/7 years old that he started to poop outside of the box. The problem is that the constipation causes straining. For years, I gave him furball cream and special foods, fiber, and it only made the problem worse. Now I put a little sprinkle of miralax in his food, and it works wonders. The vet diagnosed the megacolon with xrays, but chronic constipation leads to it (it stretches out the colon so much). It's better to address the constipation before it turns into megacolon. I would go to the vet and ask specifically about megacolon. or you can just try the miralax (just a sprinkle). it is safe, so long as the cat doesn't have a kidney/liver problem. it is over the counter. Good luck. But it's like the problem is medical, not behavioral.[/quote]
