How a cat wants to poop:
1. When a cat wants to poop, the cat may run around the house looking for a litter box. Before cats poop, they will start to smell the litter and turn it over with their front paws. If the litter box is not found, the cat may scratch the litter on the ground.
2. When a cat wants to poop, the cat will also assume a half-squatting posture and sink its buttocks in preparation for pooping. It is recommended that owners help their cats develop the habit of excreting in the litter box.
3. When a cat wants to poop but cannot find a litter box, the cat will meow to remind the owner that it is about to poop. If a kitten wants to defecate, it will stand there blankly and raise its tail very high. At this time, the owner only needs to put the cat in the litter box, and it will poop on its own.
Symptoms of cat constipation:
1. The most obvious symptom of cat constipation is extreme pain during defecation. For example, if cat litter is dug frequently, some cats will scream.
2. A cat’s constipation will also affect its normal diet, and the cat’s food intake may be greatly reduced.
3. When a cat is constipated, sometimes the owner can directly feel the feces in the intestine when stroking the cat's abdomen.
