From my experience it will poop but it just takes a little longer,and it is little tiny bits of poop not alot.However I would get it to the vet first thing tomorrow. It could have some blockage from not eating properly prior to you finding it. Good Luck

Take a warm washrag and wipe the kittens anal area. Do this after feedings and when the kitten wakes up from napping.The mother licks to stimulate movement and this would be an imitation of what she would do for the kitten. I would still try to see a vet tomorrow.

Just let him be - until the vet opens up. You can listen to his stomach for slight popping (which would let you know that the intestinal track is working) but shouldn't force anything (feeding or pooping!).
If he's not been eating, its likely it will just take a while!

I'm a cat breeder and hav dealt with kittens for over 25 years. He may still need a little stimulation if he's constipated. Usually older kittens learn to defecate on their own...but try rubbing his anus with a warm damp cloth. If food is in his system he should expel something.

when they are that young they don't poop solid yet, but as long as he is peeing he should be okay. Lookup up info on how a mama cat cares for her kitten then you will understand more

My friend just had the same problem with her cat, the vet said to feed it some yogurt or canned pumpkin without spice and it will help it to go, Good luck!

well 1 of his intestines might be tied from making him poop but i think this only is on dogs. buy tahtian juice it might help

at that age i think that stimulating his little bum might help, after feeding take a warm cloth and gently rub his bum (like a mom cat would with her tongue) cats are lactose intolerant so milk or yogurt will give him diarrhea... not much fun either

he'll be ok for now since he's eating and peeing.but I would take him to the vet when they open.
