I brought a new ragdoll kitten home on Saturday (20th) afternoon. He has is still a bit wary and jumpy, but on the whole has settled in quite well. He hardly ate for the first 24 hours he was here and to my knowledge has not drunk any water yet, even though he knows where it is. He finally used the litter tray on Sunday (21st) night - and he peed a LOT then. He's used it again since but has yet to produce anything - ahem!- solid. He goes and sits in the tray and does all the usual scratching etc, but then he starts making soft mewing noises and then just gets up and walks off. And as of today (22nd) he has not achieved anything!
Is he constipated from not drinking enough and if so, how can i get him to drink more?
PS: There is "Royal Canin" dry food left out for him (and a bowl of water) and he has a kitten wet food pouch morning and evening. He is 5 months old.
