6 week old kitten's litter box habits?

post #1 of 4
Thread Starter 
I have a question for anyone who has experience with 5-6 week old kittens - how often should they use the litter box? My foster kitten Charlie is using the box very well, with few accidents, but he poops 4 or 5 times a day. Is that normal, or does it indicate a problem? I've never cared for a kitten this young before, so I don't know.

Yep, it's normal.

Usually after kittens are past the fourth week and eating wet food and pooping on their own there's not really much care difference between them and an 8 or 9 week old. They all poop a lot when little. As long as the stools look good - Just keep an eye on it, if supplementing with KMR some kittens can get constipated on it around the time they should be weaned.
