[QUOTE="GoingNorth, post: 361946, member: 1963"] It works because of muscular and CNS stimulation of the anal nerves. Don't do it. If the matchstick breaks you and the cat are in a world of hurt. You can give a cat a small dose of Miralax in canned food to get things moving without causing irritation and cramping. Don't fool with home remedies on a post surgical case of constipation. Call the vet and ask what to do. If s/he okays the matchstick trick; fine. If not, ask for a safe laxative to use. [/QUOTE]
