My foundling orange kitten had normal stool first day on kibble, then diarrhea; only fed kibble and lactose-free milk, gave smecta and probiotics, improved, then relapsed after stopping smecta; no fever/vomit, eats/sleeps well but diarrhea; today a bit of blood.
Give pet probiotics for diarrhea; avoid dairy (even lactose-free). If no improvement plus blood, likely parasite-induced enteritis—get a fecal test first to identify the parasite, then choose dewormer (giardia/coccidia need specific drugs, common dewormers don't work; both cause persistent bloody diarrhea; also roundworm/tapeworm). Severe bleeding: oral anti-inflammatory. If blood/diarrhea with low appetite/fever/lethargy, check for panleukopenia.

My kitten got pregnant at first heat under one year, dewormed after, belly huge, fetal movement faded, no labor—what should I do?
If a pregnant cat is overdue with no labor it may be dystocia and needs emergency vet care. Gestation is 60-63 days, with signs like swollen nipples, restlessness and nest-seeking, and one hour before labor the water breaks with straining. If no due date or fetal movement, get a B-ultrasound to check the heartbeat. Reduce stress and do not give dewormer during pregnancy.
