<\/span>Does a 3 week old kitten need help pooping?<\/span><\/h2>\nMost kittens cannot poop (at least on their own) until after theyve crossed the three week old mark. If they are still with their mother, she will stimulate them so they are able to pee and poop, but if you are playing the role of mama cat instead, you will need to take over this task (well cover how below!).<\/b><\/p>\n<\/span>How long does it take a 3 week old kitten to poop?<\/span><\/h2>\nDepending on the kittens age, this may take anywhere from 10 to 40 seconds. If the kitten needs to poop, stimulate their bottom the whole time that they are pushing. Stimulating helps encourage them to use their muscles to pass stool, so continue until the kitten has finished her business.<\/b><\/p>\n<\/span>How do I know when my kitten needs to poop?<\/span><\/h2>\nSniffing the ground, meowing and dashing behind the sofa can be signs that your kitten needs to go to the toilet. Keep an eye out and gently divert your kitten to, or place him in, the litter tray and give him some privacy. Try not to stare too obviously, as he will find it easier if he feels hes not being watched.<\/b><\/p>\n<\/h2>\n<\/h2>\n<\/h2>\n<\/h2>\n<\/h2>\n<\/h2>\n<\/h2>\n<\/h2>\n<\/h2>\n<\/h2>\n<\/h2>\n<\/h2>\n<\/h2>\n<\/h2>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
