Hi there,
4 days ago I changed his diet from Whiskas wet food to raw turkey meat. Unfortunately, he hasnt defecated yet. I read that switchiing to raw meat can cause less toilet need but 4 days sound quite long. I thought maybe giving some milk can help.
Any advice?

First of all, you need to do more than just feed him raw meat. You must mix the raw meat with other additives that your cat NEEDS.

Before you start a raw diet it is very important to do lots of research, find and work with a vet that understands raw feeding.

I cannot tell you why your cat has not used his litter but I hope someone here can come on soon to help you.

Have you been feeding him just plain raw turkey for 4 days? Nothing else?

Cats are often lactose intolerant so I would not advise giving him milk unless it is goat's milk.

I actually did research long time ago. My cat is very allergic to foods so I am trying different types of foods to find out something that he is not allergic so yes I did only give him raw turkey in a big bowl full of water.

You put the raw meat in the water? Please PM Sharky and get some guidance from her on feeding raw.
