I'd initially try very plain cool scrambled egg. Add no butter and just a small amount of milk. Try the tuna if it dosen't eat that. I used to have a constantly ill cat, whom I fed those options too. It really helped her recovery.

If the kitten is no better, contact vet tomorrow. Fingers crossed, it'll recover ok.

I'm sorry to give conflicting advice but I'd personally steer clear of the milk as most cats are lactose-intolerant

that's true, but a tiny amount won't be a problem. I gather the kitten isn't getting milk or rich food on a regular basis?

Mr-P, it is always advisable to seek proffession help, like a vet, rather then from here, i'm not saying the advice is wrong, but bleeding from the bum and having thr runs should be looked at by a vet (the cat not you) it could be a number of things. I had a kitten who died before his first birthday, he had diebetes type one, i left it too late, so please do get him to a vet for a check up, even if it's nothing to worry about, it's better to be safe then sorry.

If your on housing benefit and live in the catchment area for the PDSA, you can get seen for free, but if you do then do leave a reasonable donation, not many people do.

hey guys.

Took Terrence to the vet today.. nothing to worry about by the sound of it. he has some medication to sort his little poorly system out! - his anal glands were a bit swolen so the vet sorted that! he's just been good and had it with his food. hopefully will be 100% in a day or 2!!!

Only had our kittys 3 weeks and already i was desperatly worried bout him.

thanks all

Thanks for the update - glad Terrence is on the mend.

My cat is diabetic and going for a number 2 certainly wasn't a problem. However (as with humans) she was weeing a lot and drinking loasds.

She's on insulin now and doing fine.
