I adopted a stray kitten a few weeks ago who I approximated to be about 5 weeks old. He's now around 8 weeks old now and he's been having some issues going to the bathroom. His stool is the proper shape, color, and firmness but his butt protrudes before he goes to the bathroom and instantly goes down after he poops. There is nothing sticking out so I know it's not a prolapse and anal gland issues don't seem to fit the bill. I've been feeding him strictly Wellness wet food since I got him. I've been thinking it might be constipation so I'm sure to mix lots of extra water into it for even more moisture and he seems to drink from his water bowl every now and then but this issue keeps occurring. I decided to buy some canned pumpkin to see if that helps him at all. Any thoughts on what it could be?
