Constipated kitten needs help

Hi  Need advice what oil is it that is used to assist kittens?   Getting worried...

Can you tell us more? How old is the kitten? Is it a bottle baby?

You can use a few drops of olive oil.

  Thanks talkingpeanut,   Bottle baby 5 weeks - last litter....

KMR - Canin happycat  he's going to explode...

How long has it been? If the oil doesn't produce results you can use a small sliver of a glycerin suppository for children.

Off to pharmacy...today is 2nd day   Very worried...

TY

Two days isn't an emergency but definitely do add the oil.

Where did you get this kitten?

*Update*

 Used oil then childs sup's still had issues- monitored her close for a few days...

Had difficulties.  Vets confirmed she's in perfect health glucose everything is fine. They prescribed antibiotics.

Still watching her close....

She has still problems with constipations?

Coldpressed olive or canola oil is the normal frist step. Minerale oils are  more potent. The difficulty is to find one of food grade.  I dont live in USA, so I dont know what there is.  We in Sweden use liquid paraffine oil   Its made for veterinarian use, but in Sweden the fctory making this brand, produces also paraffine oil for cleansing of saddles and horse leather.  On my mail-question they said its essentially the same product, no further additives, just different bottles and  labels.  And thus, food grade this too.

YOur baby is 5 weeks, so I would really recommendd plain crushed pumpkin.   We dont recommend it for  small kittens, but at 5 weeks it should be safe. Regulates splendidly for constipation, but in fact also mild diarrheas... 

If she uses antibiotica, so some mild probiotic is good. For example, mild full fat plain yoghurt.  If you can find one with added acidophilus and bifidus bacteria, your luck is done.  Probiotic are almost always useful fur uneasy stomach.

RAW goats milk may too make a difference... Its also  soothing somewhat some intestine inflammations.

Ont e tip more.  Some forumits swore by coldpressed organic coconut oil. Healthy and useful, it too damps down some inflammatory conditions.  both outside dthe body on skin, and inside.

Hope you have use of some of these tips, and or your baby gets soon better.

Good luck!

 Thank You  had other issues all combined doing well now
