If your cat starts going to the toilet less often, this is a serious reason to visit the veterinarian.

We'll tell you how often a cat should normally go to the toilet.

How long can a cat go without going to the toilet?

It depends on the age of the animal. A month-old kitten can go to the toilet 3 to 6 times a day.

An adult cat, on average, relieves itself once a day.

If an adult cat has not had a bowel movement for more than 4 days, this may be a symptom of a serious illness and you should immediately seek veterinary help.
