Trying to help little Phoenix Destiny to poo...

[moosmom]

I called the vet this morning. She HAS to go, but can't. I've given her Laxatone in her bottle, and even put some on her tongue. I don't understand it. I put her butt in warm water again and massaged her belly. She was squealing it hurt her so much.

I THOUGHT of putting a tiny bit of olive oil in her formula. But with a kitten this young and fragile, I want to do what's right to help her get regular again. Little Phoenix Destiny has wiped me out financially.

UPDATE:

I've upped her feedings to every 2 hours because she needs the moisture. I just gave her some more bottle and she was straining so bad to go. I saw a little poo stick out of her rectum and, (brace yourself) "helped" her along by getting that first little marble out. She pooped 3 more marbles!!!!! She's now sleeping again.

I was going to add extra water in her formula, but she wouldn't be getting the nutrients she needs.

SUCCESS!!!!!! So far.
