1 week old kitten is struggling to go pooh

(4 posts)
  1. At first I was feeding them the already made KMR formula and they all had diarreah type poohs. Then I switched to the powdered kind and just like that their pooh's are really solid and they seem to sqweel in pain when I pick them up and gentley rub their bum with a warm wash cloth. One of them pushed a couple terds out but couldn't seem to make it all come out cause I could see there was a big one in there still. Could it be that I need to put more water in the formula when I make it? Are solid poohs normal for this young of kittens? What do I need to do to help them go number 2 better?

  2. Why don't you try a mixture of pre-made KMR and powdered? Maybe you can hit a happy medium.

    I've added some links (upper right hand corner) to this thread. We talk about lots of kitten poop issues here so there are multiple other threads you can find past discussions on.

  3. Are the kittens' eyes open?

  4. Their eyes aren't quite open yet. They're one week old tomorrow.
