Looking for similar experiences w 3 year old male cat w/blood in stool+bald spot on leg

Hello! I'm sorry to hear about what your cat is going through, and I know it can be concerning. Let's talk about what's happening.



Blood in your cat's stool could arise from several issues, such as dietary indiscretion, food allergies, stress, infections, or even parasites. Meanwhile, a bald spot on his leg might be due to over-grooming, allergies, or a skin condition. Sometimes, stress or anxiety can cause cats to over-groom, leading to bald patches.



At home, ensure your kitty has a balanced diet and plenty of fresh water. Watch over his litter box to see if the blood in the stool continues or worsens, and try to keep his environment as calm and stress-free as possible.



Monitor your cat for signs that indicate a more serious issue: persistent blood in his stool, diarrhea, vomiting, changes in appetite, or signs of pain. Also, check if the bald spot becomes red, swollen, or if more spots appear.



Given the symptoms, I'd recommend booking a video consult with a vet through Dial A Vet. They can help pinpoint the cause and suggest the best steps forward for treatment and comfort. Your furry friend's health is our priority, and we're here to help you both!
