Adding fiber to your kitten's diet may help in eliminating constipation. some of the best sources of fiber are bran or psyllium husks. Pumpkin puree is also a good source of fiber. Always keep fresh cool water near the kitten. Always keep the kitten hydrated. Kitten's physical movement and increased playime can reduce chances of constipation

First, provide free access to water throughout the day and make sure it is clean. You may want to use moist food and add pumpkin to the daily diet too.

Even if you find a remedy for constipation, you will only be treating the symptoms. For a proper diagnosis and to rule out serious issues, please take your kitten to a qualified vet.

When it comes to constipation, home remedies can be dangerous. Even in kittens, constipation could be many things: poor dietstasis, a blockage, a tumour, etc. To ensure that you are treating the root cause and not merely symptoms, go to a vet asap.
