I brought my new 8 wk old kitten, Belle, home last night. She is already litter box trained and is healthy, but she has not urinated or defecated yet. Its been about 18 hours now. Her bottom is clean and looks normal, but her belly is quite full and pretty firm, so I know she's got something in there.
She is eating and drinking like a champ, and I don't have any other concerns at all. I thought maybe it was because the litter box was in the same room as her food/water, so I moved it a couple hours ago and she knows right where it is, but still no change. I'm not too concerned yet because she's not acting like she needs to go, and doesn't show any interest in the box when I put her in it.
Is this just part of her getting used to the new house or something I should start to worry about?
