Hi Will,

Depending on how long this is going on, the possibilities are constipation, hairballs or obstruction. Is there any behavioral changes? How is the kitty eating and drinking?

There is alot of great information in this link below. Please call your vet if you have any doubts.

Hope all works out.

if this is a male cat, it could be far worse than constipation, ie urinary blockage..that is the typical sympton and is often confused with constipatiion......wait longer and it could be too late.
