natural cat laxatives

Question
I have a MANX that suffers from megacolon,had the operation,didn't work,tried cisapride,lactulose and still no avail.Vet says it's nerve damage because he's a Manx, Is there a natural laxative that the cat will take or eat that he won't throw up anyway? if the cat doesn't eat,it's hard to give medication in food.Lactulose too sweet .Any ideas???

Answer
Patrick,

I spoke to a premier Manx breeder this weekend and she suggested a tablespoon of Metamusil (unflavored) twice a day in the food.  You may have to start with a smaller amount until the cat gets used to the taste.  You also should feed a couple of inches of "Catlax" wice a day, as well.

In severe cases, there is not much you can do.

Please let me know how he does.

Best regards... Norm.
