A member asked:

Any treatment for small intestinal blockage in a young cat other than surgery?

Dr. Olaf Johansen answered

Specializes in Colon and Rectal Surgery

Not sure about a cat: But depending on the cause in humans many small bowel blockages resolve on their own in a few days but patients need IV hydration to prevent serious dehydration...Better see a vet. Good luck.
