I got a kitten yesterday. His name is Calithen and I really really love him. He’s around 6-7 weeks old ( the person I got him from wasn’t very clear about how old he is). He eats soft food and kitten milk. Since i brought him home yesterday, he’s been having diarrhea. His poop is runny, and brownish-yellow. Not sure if he’s been peeing, though. I am going to assume he is, as when I cleaned his litter box, there were 5 – 6 clumps and some were more spread out than others.
I fed him Fancy Feast Ocean Whitefish and Tuna this morning, and a few hours later, he had a poop and then puked up all the food he had eaten into his litter box, and then puked a very small amount onto one of his cat toys. About an hour later, I gave him some more food, but this time it was chicken. He will still play, eat, and drink his kitten milk. He will also still crawl up onto my shoulders, hide in my hair, and sleep.
I’ve heard that when cats are stressed, they will have diarrhea. As I got him yesterday, I don’t except the diarrhea to go away for at least a couple more days as he probably still needs to adjust to his new home. As for the puking, I’ve assumed that whitefish and tuna just doesn’t agree with him. But, I want to be sure and see what everyone else thinks.
Any advice is appreciated! 🙂
