I think that I have read that people use Karo syrup for constipation? not sure. I "know" Nutracal works, have seen it in action. The other good thing about Nutracal is it is a dietary suppliment, will give him some nutrition while he isn't eating.
I am not a vet and don't want to encourage or discourage you from getting the xray. I am not sure what I would do about that. I am only making suggestions about what I would do if I chose to hometreat him. He has every reason to be constipated. Diet, stress and vomiting. PLus he seemed to feel good for one day? Would he have a good day if it was a blockage? I would get canned pumpkin and Nutracal and get him to lick ice cubes. I wouldn't give him anymore rice for now. He isn't vomiting right?
Good luck and keep us posted.
