Stomach or Gut Obstruction

Stomach or Gut Obstruction

When a pet eats something (they shouldn’t) which gets stuck in either the stomach or further along the intestinal tract, it causes a blockage so other food, liquid and gas can’t pass through.

The most common sign that a pet has an obstruction is continuous vomiting.

At Mulberry House Vets we have had to remove many foreign objects surgically including toys like NERF gun pellets, dummies, socks, pants, large stones and Christmas decorations.
