I am sorry to be so full of questions today! This is a particularly graphic question...caution!
My kitten has had diarrhea for about 24 hours, I was worried as it is. Just now, he came up onto the bed and smelled horrible. He was covered in poop, all over his paws and his belly, even his side. I went into the room where we keep the litterbox, and there was bits of poo everywhere! On the closet door, on the inside top of the litterbox cover, the carpet, and a little in the actual litterbox. What is going on? The E-vet doesn't give advice over the phone. I gave him a bath, cleaned, and I've made sure he's eaten his canned and gave him a bit of chicken broth to keep him hydrated. I hope this isn't serious, but I can't think of any causes.
We got him about 2 weeks ago, switched his food right after we got him...but the diarrhea didn't start until yesterday morning. He was just at the vet on Wednesday for his testing and his rabies shot. Gums are a light pink, everything else seems normal. He has a slight eye infection which he is now on antibiotics for.
Sorry again for the million questions!
