has she been separated from her mom? 7 weeks is way to early she needs her mom until at least 10 weeks. after she eats her mom will lick her bum to stimulate her going to the bath room. don't use a clumping litter with her also you might try cleaning her bum with a face cloth then putting her in the litter. at this stage she would normally learn this from watching her mom. if she is still with her mom don't worry mom will take care of it. if she isn't try to see if you can return her to mom for a few more weeks . if thats isn't possible you might have to call your vet to get some moms milk she may not be ready to be eating food yet all Kitty's start at different times i think. well good luck

also they like jr chicken baby food, warm it up and she will love it i have kittens and it is vary good for them then you just keep adding soft food to it untill she is fully on the wet stuff then train her to eat the hard food but the softer kibble.
