Hello,
We have a kitten that is about 15 weeks old, the first time everything went well and she went to the box all the time.
But now, since about a week ago, she has started pooping outside the drawer (but in the bathroom where the drawer is).
Today we found blood in the stool that she had put outside the box as well.
She is not dewormed yet, we thought it might be a worm then, but could it be something else?
What should we do? We’re just going to go and buy a deworming tablet anyway.
Thanks in advance!
Hey!
If the kitten is completely well, is alert and eats / drinks normally, you can try deworming. Blood in the stool is due to an irritation in the large intestine and it can be due to many other things such as stomach illness or stomach poisoning. If the kitten does not get well from the deworming or if she seems to be unwell, a veterinarian should be consulted.
