You can stimulate kittens to poop by taking a moist towel and wiping their rears. Mother cats lick their kittens bottoms to get them to do their thing. The towel is a good substitute for the real thing.

It depends how old your kitten is. If your kitten is around 7-8 weeks old, she should be weaned.

  • You will need to have a quiet space (preferably away from a busy space, such as a kitchen or living-room ) with no drafts.
  • Scoop out her litter every day, or otherwise she might not want to use it, and leave a little ' love message' on the floor. Use non- clumping litter, as sometimes kittens will eat a little of the litter and it could clump- up inside her intestines or stomach.
  • Refill/ refresh her water every hour / 2 hours so she isn't drinking old water. Top up her food bowl when necessary and read the instructions and food guidelines on the pack.
  • Give her lots of love and attention, but also leave her on her own for a bit to explore her new home for herself.

Get her a scratching post so she can:

a) sharpen her little claws

B) she is more likely to use the scratching post instead of your couch's or furniture.

you will need to go to the vet as soon as possible so she can be checked up on and have her injections.

love her/ him as much as you can!
