It sounds very likely that Tink could be constipated. I would advise the following tactics to help relieve her constipation; increased water intake Wet or tinned food Pureed pumpkin Mineral oil- Mineral oil can be given at 1 teaspoon per 10 pounds body weight once or twice daily, and coconut oil and vegetable oil can be similarly dosed A high fiber food- http://www.drsfostersmith.com/product/prod_display.cfm?pcatid=32074 If Tink does not improve in the next 24 hours, I would advise taking her to the veterinarian in case she has an underlying medical condition.
