My 4-month kitten poops less and sleeps more. Is this normal?

Question

My 4month ragdoll kitten has begun poopingonce in 36hrs and sleeping much more since past 3days. Vet said his bowels gut etc is all smooth and ok. I don't think he has constipation as I feed him pumpkin puree twice every day in small quantities and his poop is not hard etc. He's peeing normally. What is the issue? He used to poop once a day before this. Pet's info: Cat | Ragdoll | Male | unneutered | 3 months and 17 days old | 13 lbs

This could just be a normal change as his GI tract matures, absorbs more and therefore he will defecate/poop less. As long as Baluu continues to be normal otherwise (eating, drinking, normal energy level) he should be ok.
