I took her to the vet on Wednesday, and they rehyrdrated her and ran some bloodwork. They didn't find anything wrong and put her on a boiled chicken n rice diet for 2 days. She hasn't puked since, but its going on 3 days now and she hasn't pooped! I can't believe that after eating 2 whole chicken breasts the past few days that she hasn't needed to go to the bathroom! I called the vet this morning and they just said, well she probably hasn't ate much since she puked...give it time..she should go today or tomorrow. Well - still nothing ....and just a while ago(3:30om), she was coughing like she was vomiting in her mouth..and just one grain of rice came up. I fed her at 6am chicken/rice/and a spoon of kibble and she hasn't ate since. The vet is closed tomorrow and im just really worried about her.
She is acting normal....but she shouldn't be randomly gagging and not pooping! It's just not right....i don't care what the vet says.
Anyone ever experienced this?  |
well first off.. i would ask for a Bile Acid Test and do it soon. It is a test for the liver and when you said she threw up right after eating.. that was the first thing i thought of. But since she hasn't done it since... probably all is well but i would FOR SURE check just in case.
As for the pooping. Give her two things- pro biotic yogurt to help her tummy get back to normal after all the puking and give her pure pumpkin (comes in a can.. NOT the spiced kind)which will help her poop.. might take 24 hours till you see poop.
You might think about a new vet?
