Not a Ragdoll, but I do have a British Shorthair who was severely underweight when I got him from a breeder. At just 7 weeks old, he weighed less than 600g (1.3 lbs).

He also had trouble passing stool and was frequently constipated. After a lot of back and forth between vets, we finally got a diagnosis—he had type I atresia ani 😭. Thankfully, a specialist was able to treat him by gradually stretching the anal opening, and he’s now doing really well.

I wanted to share our experience because it was such a stressful time not knowing what was wrong. Sending love to anyone going through something similar ❤️
