Diarrhea in kittens, especially accompanied by weight loss, is concerning and needs prompt attention. Kittens are highly susceptible to dehydration and can quickly decline. Causes can range from intestinal parasites like giardia or coccidia to viral infections such as panleukopenia, or dietary sensitivities. It's important to get a fecal sample tested and have the kitten examined by a veterinarian quickly. Until then, ensure they have access to fresh water to prevent dehydration. This is an emergency - please take your pet to your nearest emergency veterinary clinic immediately.Clinically Approved Standard by Dial A Vet Veterinary Team
