IF you used worming tablets that you DID NOT get from the vet, they can cause diarrhea.

Hi scamp
you should check with a vet to see if the cat is old enough to be wormed, if you are giving it milk, even cat milk, then stop, as milk is not good for cats. It contains lactose which is a sugar that cats cannot digest. It can in fact cause colitis which is an inflammation of the bowel that can cause constipation, diarrhoea, and bloody stools. I know this because my cat had the same thing, which stopped after we stopped giving her milk on the vets advice. She was a bit p!ssed off about it cos she loved a bowl of milk, but that's life, or nine lives.

it depends. If you have bought pet shop crap then there is a good chance they will kill your cat. You need to get it to a vet immediately. In future go to the vet for your cat wormer. At 13 weeks old, your kitten should have been wormed by the breeder and not need worming by you. What did you use?

If you cat has worms, it's stool is already going to be bloody and gross. The meds for it will cause some even weirder looking stool. Call your vet and let them know about this. Though I've had kittens with this problem and found the same results, they got better with the meds and are just fine. But you can never be too sure.

,yes if the dose is to strong check the weight of kitten ,if you have a set of scales weigh yourself first then hold the kitten to find out its weight, check dosage on worming tablets, to try and cure the diarrhoea try giving ground white chalk mixed in some food, if diarrhoea continues seek help from a vet ,don,t be worried at first make sure the kitten has plenty of fluids no milk .

probably not but don't u think it would b a good idea to take it to the vet. the breed has nothing to do with anything but giving it medicine without visiting a vet is total irresponsibility. if u can't afford it then don't keep it give it to someone who will take care of it properly.

You love your kitty? Then why haven't you talked with a vet about this problem? What would you do if it was you who had the bloody diarrhoea? Or your child?

it truly is achieveable, tremendously if the malicious program that has been ejected develop into related to a decrease component of the gut. in my view, i could take a pattern of the poo with the blood in it, and the canines to the vet to get professional suggestion.

any blood in faeces/urine can be symptomatic of something more serious. our cat had collic and had those kind of symptoms. might be an infection or something more worrying. go to the vet! poor kitty.
