Things You'll Need
- Soft cloth
- Cotton balls
Instructions
Dampen a soft cloth with warm water. Use a white cloth so you can identify the waste when it occurs.
Rub the cloth against the animal's lower abdomen back and forth slowly and gently to encourage waste elimination. Keep rubbing the animal gently until it eliminates.
Stimulate the animal once after every feeding to ensure proper bowel movements and urination. Always use a warm cloth for this process. It may take two or three feedings before the animal will start to eliminate waste of any kind. If the animal has not urinated or defecated within two minutes, try again at the next feeding.
Clean the area with a damp cotton ball after the animal eliminates to keep the area clean.
