I have a 4 week old kitten, who does not have a feline mother. Every time I stimulate her to go to the bathroom, she pees - which is great but - I've had her since Wednesday and she hasn't pooped yet. I am feeding her Kitten Milk Replacer and Science Diet's soft canned Kitten food. I'm just afraid that if I continue to feed her, she'll have serious blockage. I've taken care of kittens before (as little as 1 week old) but I've never had this problem before. She doesn't seem like she's in pain or irritated. I'm just not sure what else I can do.

Hi, MSBusher, yep, poop and constipation will bring you up a whole host of previous threads (there's even a link to a video on one of them, of a vet tech using the 'triangle' method...)
One of the suggestions seems to be to give a couple of drops of hairball remedy but check out the threads and see if they help.

How's your kitty doing MSBusher?

I know, I checked before I posted. I was looking for other ways because I tried the suggestions I read on this site already (except for the hairball remedy and whatever kind of oil someone suggested). I figured maybe someone would give something new.
My kitty is doing great now. She finally pooped (this morning). I just added more water to everything she ate. I'm assuming it was combination of that and it was when she needed/wanted to go. I don't know if that's a fact, but it makes sense to me.

Yay for poop! (This is something we celebrate on a regular basis. lol)
