We have just bought an older cat from a cat shelter. She is 4 years old and we assumed she would know to use the kitty litter. We let her have run of the house for the first day (apparently not the thing to do) and she pooped on the carpet..... then read that we should lock her in a room with enough food and water with her kitty litter and she would work out the rest. She was in there all day yesterday and last night and she still has not pooped!! She also isn't eating much food. It is Tuesday and she last eliminated on sunday morning (a healthy stool as well). She will stay in the room today but I'm worried we are doing something wrong? She also isn't eating or drinking much. We have an indoor plant and she tried to pee on that.... We have tried a couple of different kitty litter now using one that looks much like dirt, but still no luck. Can anyone suggest anything?
