    Donna I just read this. I went through the same thing with Lucky. I gently ran my finger down his belly, after several strokes we had poo. It took me a number of times to get the length and pressure right. I would also mix the kitten formula with goats milk every other feeding about 2 parts formula to 1 milk.

    Well, I gave my first kitty enema a few minutes ago. I used a syringe with some Vaseline on it (thanks Tailof2kitties) and maybe a drop or two of warm water. Then I plopped her butt in a bowl of warm water and began massaging her belly and butt. I could believe how fast it worked!! It was easy and she was SOOOO relieved. I don't mean to get graphic but she pooped out almost 3"! No wonder her belly was so big.

    At least I know HOW to do it in case this happens again. Poor baby. She now full and sound asleep.

    Success!!!

    My sister in law recently fostered a kitten who would. not. poop. She was one of six, and all of her siblings died. It was eventually determined that the litter was affected by a virus which slowed down the peristalsis (contractions) in their intestines, affecting both digestion and defecation.

    What it eventually took to save Acacia was several weeks of enemas twice a day. Hopefully little Phoenix won't need such a drastic regimen! I mentioned Acacia to you because I wanted to let you know that after a few weeks' worth of enemas when she was really teeny her intestines did eventually start contracting correctly and she was a normal little kitten!
