Mochi is constipated. Any remedies, besides trying to get her to drink more water?

If increased water is not helping, and adding pumpkin the last few days is not helping....then, you may consider taking her to the vet. I have had to do this my Skeeter. He got very constipated a few months ago. We increased water, fasted him from eating, except for some pumpkin, and let him work it out. It lasted a few days. We didn't fast all those days, just for 24 hours. Make sure to flood her food with water too.

If it is longer than a few days, take her in. I wonder if you got a bad batch of food? Or, is she eating something that you don't know about (like tissue?)? Is she a raw bone eater? I know if they get too much bone, it can make things very dry.

Anything in her poop, when it does come out?
