Kitten update.
16 years ago
My mom put him back outside with his mom monday afternoon.
My dad's dog got a hol dof him again THIS afternoon. I FLIPPED OUT. He is now in the house permanently with a tooth hole in his head. We cleaned it with alcohol and put generic neosporin on it, I hope that doesnt hurt him...
I theorize that the "mommy" cat put him out because he isnt hers. There were 3 kittens in her litter. After he got put back out, there were four, so. >_> I'm just going to take care of him, while my mom takes care of him while I'm at school.
I'm glad he isnt old enough to poop without having it scared out of him yet (which he did >_>) so we don't really need the litter boxes yet. Of course, if anyone who knows better about kittens has any advice, feel free. X3

It's not a good idea to leave him to poop when he's scared. You can wet down a paper towel and rub his bum to get him to evacuate, and should after each meal until he's ready for litter training.

OP
How long will it be before he's ready to litter train? He's between 3 and 4 weeks old, I don't really know.

He'll probably start going on his own, at which point you'll want to pick up the mess, put it in the litterbox, and put him there with it (not on it, haha). He'll get the idea through repetition.

Also http://www.kittencare.com/ is a good source of information, as I haven't been through all of this before.
