Bowel incontinence in cats
4 min read
Bowel or faecal incontinence happens when a cat cannot control when their stool comes out or when the process of passing stool is not following its normal sequence. This is a common problem for very elderly cats.
There are many possible causes for bowel incontinence. Some cats pass stools without knowing and others have some awareness but things no longer flow properly. In older cats there can be a combination of problems and an association with dementia. In younger cats, incontinence is usually due to injury or nerve problems.
