New Kitty hasn’t pooped yet

Hi Thanks for all your help.

The lady that we got her from gave us a week supply of the food that she has been eating. We are going to slowly introduce EVO kitten food which is the closest to a raw food diet or natural diet we can get her.

We don’t really want to use the clumping litter or the clay litter at all. we want her to use this stuff. its much better for her and it just turns to sawdust and is completely biodegradable.

we did just pick up the pine litter, I’m not exactly what litter she was using before but I’m almost certain its the cheap clay kind. Shes acting very normal, extremely playful, curious and loving and cuddly like a normal kitty.

Her coat was a little ratty and she was full of dander, we gave her a nice warm bath with some flea and tick shampoo and her coat is back to being shiny and soft again.

She doesn’t appear to be under any stress at all. I’m wondering if its because of the new surroundings or maybe because we did change the litter. i don’t know.

uh oh false alarm, she had a monster pee. poop should be soon.

it’s been 7 hours, she had some chicken some fish and a few bits of dried food.. and finally a poop! it was dry looking so i’m mixing some water into her food to hydrate her. She meowed after she was done so i think it hurt her little bum a bit. I’m just happy. it was stinky too.

I know she ate dry kitten food, but unsure of the rest. we were having trouble getting her to eat because she was to uncomfortable i think to poop, so she was holding it. I had cooked a chicken for supper and she really really liked a little taste, since she hadn’t eaten much I gave her more, she ate a fair bit which made me happy. It was moist so that should be good. I have some drippings left over in the pan, i’m thinking of mixing that and some water with her dry food.

Her coat was a bit ratty when we first got her yesterday, however it looks much better since the preventative flea bath last night. I’ve had Dogs all my life and cats when i was really little (like 4). i know with dogs you mix a raw egg in their food with some oil to keep their coat healthy i think cats are similar.

We cook our own food pretty organically so their shouldn’t be anything in the drippings other than some Celtic sea salt which would just help balance her electrolytes. does this sound like a good plan?
