Use a warm damp rag and gently rub the belly of the kitten! This will stimulate the bowels to move, then you will need to wipe off the poop that comes out. It should have a bowel movement and urinate several times a day. You are giving her kitten replacement milk and not cows milk, right? Cows milk isn't the right stuff for a kitten and can either make them constipated or have diarrhea. You need to feed it about every two hours. Good luck.

A friend of mine had the same problem. He tried rubbing the kitten's anus with a wet cloth, which is what you are supposed to do. But a few days went by and nothing happened. He took the kitten to the vet and it turned out she had worms.
I would suggest using the damp cloth method, but if she doesn't go, call or visit the vet. You should get the kitten checked out by a vet anyway, just to make sure she's healthy.

The kitten can not use the bathroom by its self, I had to hand raise a litter of kittens and had to get a wash cloth and wet it with warm water and gently wipe their bottoms to stimulate like a momma cat does when she cleans them. Just be very gentle and you must do this 2 to 3 times a day. Good luck.

a warm wet wash cloth gently rubbed on the anus can stimulate a bowel movement. A friend who breeds cats suggests in the case of an orphaned kitten or any kitten a mother rejects to encourange elimination after each feeding.

No he would not sound constipated. If he became constipated he will be suffering to poop and characteristic little not ordinary bowel moves. not having a bowel move isn't seen constipation, even as they conflict and would't it really is constipated. He sounds fantastic he will probably poop immediately. My daughter is formula fed as well and frequently will flow an afternoon yet she has also been constipated and trust me you'll understand he received't be sound asleep this is for particular! lol. purely keep feeding on call for or perhaps as he's wide awake flow his legs in a bicycle action and rub his tummy and he wil have a bm immediately i'm particular. No concerns.

how old is newborn? a few dyas makes a lot of difference verses a few weeks. the older they are the more they poop. wiping their bottom until they go is what everyone says to do but she may just not have eatten enough to poop yet. after 2 days i would call your vet. i found a newborn kitten a few years back and she peed on her own at 2 weeks but not often.

Yes, I agree. If she's very young she may still need the stimulation her mom would gove her. But also make sur you are feeding her right for her development. For this info, I suggest calling shelter or vet's office. I'm pretty sure they could answer without having to see the kitten.

Get a bunch of tissue and just get it a little wet with luke warm water and then gently rub her anus.
Worked for the kitten I found.

i used a small bit of the laxatives you put up your butt i put it in a small syringe so it would not hurt the kitten.
The laxative was for children two and over!!!
My kitten is 2 weeks today and still alive
