Welcome to TDK K9. I added a tag, in pink top right for constipation and not pooping. Just click on them and you will find other posts and advice that should help you. Someone who knows more than I do should be along soon.
How old is your Cute kitty and what are you feeding it?Posted 1 year ago by Moonshadow_NZ #

Try mixing a little vegetable oil (eg olive, canola, rice bran, soya bean) into her wet food -- maybe up to half a teaspoon, depending on how much you're giving her. If she's on dry food, that won't be helping, and she needs access to fresh water at all times. How does she seem otherwise? Is she eating, drinking and playing normally? Are you sure she's not pooping somewhere else and you haven't found it? A week is a long time. If the vegie oil doesn't work, you could try a little plain canned pumpkin (no additives, no spices, they're bad for kitten). You could also try giving her a little plain unflavoured yoghurt.
If none of those work pretty soon and you're sure she hasn't pooped anywhere for a week, I'm sorry, I really think you need to get her to the vet. Maybe you could work out a payment plan with one of the more reasonably priced ones. Is her stomach hard and distended? If it is, I would get her to the vet sooner rather than later.
