Hi all! Yesterday I noticed that my kitten (5 month old yesterday) left a tiny stain of blood on his blanket. I thought it was coming out from his intimate parts, I inspected "it" but it appeared all good, but just in case, I booked an appt with the vet for this coming Saturday.
However this morning he was being particularly naughty and got a paper roll and started destroying it (eheh, kittens!), and I could see a stain of saliva and like 2 drops of blood on it - and now I am pretty sure it's from his mouth, not from his genitals.
He is eating as normal, drinking as normal, peeing a bit more than usual and that's also why I want to have him checked, he is biting a little bit more lately but stops as soon as I say NO.
Can it be that he is teething, and that's where the blood is from? We started brushing his teeth just two days ago and I saw these little blood drops in the last 2 days - so it might be related. We also inspected his mouth and saw he is growing the back teeth.
