Cat Forum / General Topics / May 2008HELP! rescued kitten haven't defecate for almost 2 days
Greetings, I found a abandoned kitten yesterday and took him home. Now we feed him cat milk formula, and he's been nursing just fine. However he haven't defecate yet, and it has been almost 2 days. I tried to stimulate him by rubbing his rear end ... you know... but so far it is not helping. What can I do? I really hope I can take care if this myself, because the vet here is extremely expensive. Thanks in advance! http://www.maxshouse.com/kitten_care.htm#Caring%20for%20Orphan%20Kittens > Greetings, > [quoted text clipped - 6 lines] > I really hope I can take care if this myself, because the vet here is > extremely expensive.

Thanks in advance! Vet first, worry about cost later. I can't stress that enough, it's really, *really* important. Any worthwhile vet will negotiate costs and come to some arrangement if you are genuinely short of money. But the cat's welfare *must* come first. Please let us know how you get on. How old is he BTW..?

The kitten is very strong and active, eat quite a lot, and pee every time i stimulate him.

Now the kitty is fairly health and active, but still I have some problems: 1) It is fairly hot here, usually 25C~30C, and I notice when I use heating pad to keep him warm, he will not defecate. Does that mean he is getting too hot? 2) I feel he is develop too slowly. It has been a week since he came here but I don't think he has gain much weight since. Also, he still have trouble walking normally and he has no teeth so far neither. Is he normal? And what is the normal body weight for a 2 week old kitten? Thanks a lot! |
