My kitten isn't eating or pooping. Does she need a vet right away?
HI, sorry to hear Acil isn't eating well. If he's not taking in food, he will not have enough waste to make feces. Due to her young age, I suggest taking her to a vet and having some tests done to see why she is not eating. Kittens should always be eating multiple times a day and if they don't, they can get low blood sugar and have seizures and maybe die. If she is still up and walking around, I would try some canned food in a blender and use an eye dropped or oral syringe to make sure she gets some nutrients until you can get her to a vet. IF she is not responding to you and only laying there, she needs emergency veterinary attention. Force feed her small amounts of a liquid food until you can take her to a vet, and no, I cannot forsee any side effects coming from any medication the vet might give. Good luck!
