   Hi everyone!!
   I have a question an it may sound lame, but i have a kitten which i think is around 10 weeks now.. it had been like 3 days now and she didn't not poo at all.. she is a totally indoor kitten and i was checking if she has done it somewhere else.. but never find anything.. i am really worried on her. but she is healthy and she plays and also sleeps well.. Please Help Me! i cant seem to stop thinking about it.

   additional information: i had my kitten now for like a week, when i first had her she was already trained to use the litterbox and she was pooping normaly. but now she does not do it at all, but she pees though. Lately she is so affictionist to me now, loves to sleep on my bed and on my belly, and when she wakes up she start licking me and licking my cloths so much that it get so wet. I have noticed also the past 3 days, she is sleeping even more, but when she wake up she eats and play normaly. One more thing, my cat doesnt like to drink water too :\

   I hope you guys can advise me! or help me! and if someone had experienced the same thing.I am so afraid that the toxins are still in her body

   Thanx

   Are you giving her just dry food?

   And what toxins are you talking about?

   Also a cat generally wont gulp down water like a dog. But you should try some evaporated milk/pet milk and a little water and see if she takes to that. She is still really young and could still be in the process of moving on to solid food.

   i give her dry food, and also sometimes meat that i cook..maybe once.. she likes cow milk though :\ but i didn't give her again because i think its bad for kitten. she doesn't like to drink water, so today i gave her wet food and added water on it and she drank it.. but till now she didn't poop. Im sorry , its my first kitten, so thats why i am freaking out.

   what i mean by toxins is that if she doesnt poop, the bad things wont get out of her. :\

   I wouldn't give her dry food if she's constipated, it won't help. Stick with the wet food for now, and add a little water to it and that should help.

   Put a bit of water in her food, preferably wet food so she gets enough. Some kittens/cats don't drink a lot of water.

   These links will help you too (gratis jcat)

   These are great websites to help with raising kittens, if we haven't given them to you before, and the last one has a feeding chart:
