Finally it is pooping. So now you have to make sure you feed it good quality kitten food, make sure it drinks water (put the water bowl about 2m away from the food bowl). Make sure it gets plenty of exercise (playing). Monitor its habits. It it does not poop once every day, you will need to take it to your pet doctor for an exam.
