Are there non-surgical treatment options for my cat's megacolon?

Question

What are alternative treatments to surgery for feline megacolon? Pet's info: Cat | Manx | Male | 6 years and 5 months old | 17.8 lbs

Lindsey Edwards MVB, BSc, IVCA · Accepted Answer

I am afraid more information would be required as to the underlying cause of the megacolon and any previous injuries or surgeries he has undergone in order to assess fully. Diet manipulation, acupuncture and chiropractic care may all help in improving lower bowel function and the addition of laxatives can all ease symptoms
