One morning after a night shift, I found a 5-6 weeks old kitten on the streets near my car. With no mother cat around, I took her home and then later, to the vet who checked her out. He later gave her medicine for worms & fleas and formula to feed her. I remember waking up every few hours just to feed her, whilst sleeping during the day. Luckily she knew what a litter box was and used it immediately; and yes, I did inspect her poo. Thankfully she did not have any diarrhoea or medical issues at all. She is now 8 years old and she is still with me.
That is awesome, good on you. Well done for saving a life. She could have been run over, hurt or something else that doesn't bear thinking about. There's a cat right there who will bond with you deeply.
My kitties poop is the right colour but it is liquidy or I might say runny The colour is actually perfect like 1:09 but I can't understand y it is runny?
Thank you so much for all of your videos. My friend found a box with 8 abandoned kittens in it not too long ago and I recommended he watched your videos and checked out your website for help, thanks to you these kittens are now thriving and he'll soon be looking to find them new homes :)
@@hotcheetos304 it was 2 months ago So it's all settled now Cause she was feeling well and was missing the street so we let her go , and kept giving her cat biscuits even after that thanks 😊
Thank you Hannah for this informative, to the point video of how to handle a pretty gross but important topic...poop. People don't realize how important it is to monitor what poop looks like and what to consider when things don't look right!
My cat got diarrhea at only 12 weeks old about a week after I got her. She was spayed way too early, according to the vet, because the shelter I adopted her from required all cats to be spayed/neutered before adoption. The early spaying caused a lot of stress on her body so she got a nasty virus that caused her to have diarrhea. It took about a week of medication and sanitizing everything before she completely healed.
I think I’m dealing with the same issue with my 3 months old kitten. I will give it a week and monitor if the diarrhea subsides and if not I will go to the vet
My cat gave birth to 3 kittens and then after 1 year the 3 were healthy but she gave birth to the other four but it was like 1 month so they died before a week and then.. Nami (The Cat) died because she was SO sick and can't breathe we take her to the vet. but before we got to the vet she died :(
Thank you so much for this video! I recently got a 12 week kitten that has explosive diarrhea suddenly. Aside from making an appointment with the vet first thing tomorrow, I am going to be taking extra care of his grooming. He isn't cleaning himself as well as he should be and I didn't realize how important it was! I love your videos! Thanks so much for all that you do 😍
I really appreciate your videos on how to take care of a tiny kitten. I have always had cats and right now I have 6 of them. (all rescues and 4 of them are feral kittens we rescued from outside) But this is my 1st time rescuing a 2 week old kitten and your videos are life saving for my newest baby. Thank you very much!!!
One of my kittens died from diarrhea, we couldn't even do anything because we did not know what to do and the nearest vet was around 12 kilometres away
Mer ffs bruh, it's was 3Am and when I had previously visited the vet, he told me that that kitten would not survive, it had already caused an infection and the medicines would be bad for a kitten which was 3 days old!
@@roojackaroo8517 That vet was wrong. There are many things that can be done, and it would have definitely been worth trying. It's better to try, unless they have organ failure or a critical injury.
My friends mom is a vet and it's almost monsoon season. She gets a lot of orphaned kittens, so I thought I would learn this in case I'm invited to help again. Quick story; and orphaned kitten in which I took care of needed a home, and my great aunt wanted a kitten. So was like, "yeah! My favorite kitten is getting a home! I can see her all the time!" So I gave the kitten to her, and two weeks later, she had to break the news that she gave it away! When I asked her why, she told me that she was biting too much. And her solution, was to give it to a family with a dog so she can bite the dog! And I loved this kitten! Then she got another kitten with ringworm, and she got ringworm from that kitten, and she had it soooooo bad! And guess what? She kept that kitten! She didn't keep the kitten that I gave to her! I was so heartbroken that the relationship between her and I will never be the same! Thanks a lot.
This is very helpful. Last year, I rescued a calico kitten and my cousin over fed her when I'm at work. So far, nothing too serious happened to her afterwards. I'll use these tips if I rescue another kitten.
Thank you for the advice. Taking care of a kitten (10-12 weeks with liquid stools. He was abused by his ‘owner’ who was starving him and throwing him into walls. He’s on probiotic, an antibiotic and a special diet. Your video gave me great pointers!
I just took in 4 kittens that I am going to foster. I believe they are about 2 weeks old. Named them Blue, Delta, Echo and Charlie, from Jurassic World. Thank you so much for these videos, they have literally taught me so much. Wish me luck!
If only I had found this channel when my orphan kittens were still being bottle fed. They both had panleukopenia & only one of them made it past the first week after I rescued them. 🙁 She's a healthy 9 week old baby now though, so I'm glad I was able to help her despite everyone else trying to tell me she wouldn't make it.
I have a 3-week old kitten that we rescued after some terrible human tossed out the door of their car into the road. I have had it for five days now and took the kitten to the vet on the first day. It is a female and other than a scratch on the nose and a scratch to the eye, the kitten got a clean bill of health and its first dewormer. I have watched a lot of your videos and they have been very helpful, so THANK YOU! She has been getting stronger every day and gaining small amounts of weight. I have been feeding her KMR formula since the first day and into day 5 now. She just yesterday started responding to the stimulation of the genitals and urinating in the baby wipe instead of randomly on the floor. My concern is that she has only pooped twice now and it was runny both times. I have introduced two forms of litter boxes (standard and pelleted pine) and she has not taken interest in either type. I am concerned that she is not pooping enough. Am I overthinking this or is this to be expected??????
@@DayBandsEnt we eventually got the kitten to poop by continuing to stimulate her bottom with a wet wipe while running warm water over her butt under the sink. They will eventually start become more regular, especially after you get them started on soft food instead of fomula. Just be patient.
excellent video. last summer was our first time fostering kittens...but not our first time with kittens. the shelter insisted we start them on solid food at just 3 weeks, the first day we got them, and of course they got diarrhea. They were lucky they had their mum to feed them too or they would have been very ill. This wasn't the only thing they told us that was wrong. But being new to the system we tried to do what they told us to. But seriously we should have just trusted our instincts from day 1 because we were the ones caring for them. So that's my advice for fosters. You're the one who spends your days and nights with them. You're the one who knows them best.
I should’ve known this before, my cat had diarrhea and then it turned bloody all of a sudden then at the vets he died but he got buried with my blanket though, this was helpful. ✨
Thank you so much for all your informative videos! I brought my fosters in for tapeworms, and found out they have coccidia too. :-( Being informed is so helpful and makes me feel more equipped to get them through this!
BOOM! I have 3 cats! Proud? I rescued them. They were skin and bones. Thare wear 12 kittens that ware 2 weeks old. I took all of them. We sold most of them, but I kept 2. And 1 have one more that is 7 years old. Anyway. Kitten lady I think your so helpful! I ❤ your channel! I couldn't thank you enough! You inspired me to get the homeless kittens!! I'm always hear for you! If you think your alone, remember me. I'm always here for you. -Renee mclain
This is full of wonderful advice! I've bottle fed kittens for over 20 years and agree that diarrhea is a critical concern. There is very little research on GI issues neonatal kittens, but one study I found indicates that Fortiflora contains the type of bacteria found in kittens with a significantly higher mortality rate. Since their intestines are not fully developed, the bacteria in Fortiflora, while good for adults, can cause a systemic infection that is fatal. So, I NEVER use Fortiflora in kittens under 8 weeks old.
This video helped. I thought my new kitten may have been having diarrhea due to food change, but it didn’t stop after a few days. We took him to the vet and he ended up having coccidia! he had his first round of meds and it helped immediately. Now he is on meds for a few days and happy!
You are such a good person! Thank you for all you do for the kittens and those who take care of kittens. You save lives directly and through others! God bless you!
I caught a feral kitten around 2 months ago (he was around 7-9 weeks), and he had pretty bad diarrhea. He was pot bellied, and skinny. We dewormed him (he puked up a roundworm soon after we caught him), but his poop was still liquid for a bit afterwards, so we tried different kitten foods. We found one that worked, and just after one day, his poop was solid, and he hasn't gotten diarrhea since. He put on a lot of weight afterwards, and his activity levels increased dramatically. He's 2.7kgs now, and has his adult canines coming through :)
@@manishitachoudhary8967 you have to deworm it first because it wont gain weight nor lose pot belly with worms.. there is paste or pills that you can give kitten to deworm it, or ask vet to do it
what to do if young cats suffer from vomiting and are not eating any thing? My young male cat is suffering from that and when he eats cat food he vomit immediately i should be thankful if you can tell me or give me any sort of directions what i should do. Thank you
Hey Litten Lady, Can you do an in-dept series on how to care for cats and kittens? Something for people (fe. me) who haven't cared for a cat and want to learn. Cheers!
I just started weaning my 3 kittens and one of them has liquid poop, I guess no solid food for her yet🥺 honestly kitten lady you're a life saver for so many cat lovers. This is my first litter so I'm scared of doing something that'll harm them
@@acatspectator it actually got better by itself, i stopped giving her solid food and just let her nurse on her mom and it got better, i read that this happens when the stomach is not yet ready for solid food
You are amazing. Today my kittens have diarrhea, a lot came out of one. The person who found one of the kittens gave them milk, then I had to give them something to drink and found a site that said to use goats milk. I have only had them since Thursday evening. I think they have food issues. You said no milk and I think they have been stressed trying to find mom. Plus it was a very very hot day about 100 degrees when I found them. Today you taught me to immediately get a dewormer. My Vet can't see them for a couple of weeks. I may have to find another vet. Your amazing, thank you.
You are the BEST kitten lady. I wish you tremendous success with your work(saving kitten lives) and loads of happiness in your life..... May God look after you and empower you.... I try to do the same thing and when I can save lives I feel myself immeasurably grateful. There is a lot I learnt from you, and for that I thank you as well.
I just wanted to say how much I enjoy your videos your videos are very well done and they’ve helped me more than any other videos on UA-cam thank you so much Kitten lady
JUst wanted to tell you that I appreciate your videos. Always great information with a dose of kitten cuteness! I foster for the Humane Society and currently have 1 foster cat and 7 foster kittens who are currently 5 weeks.
THANK YOU KITTEN LADY!!!!! wWhen what I was trying didn't work, I would try something else. Thanks for reminding me that taking a step back is the right direction. I took a step back and went to stage 2 KRM. That helped. Then I took one more step back to kitten formula. Things have cleared up for now and this kitten has her appetite back too. Thanks again for presenting this information in an easy and pleasant way to digest. I also loved your information on point cats.
This is great! It’s the same with very young babies and children. And I’m not surprised that you can tell a lot about what’s going through their poops.
Diarrhoea can cause very rapid dehydration which is serious. Its bad in adult cats and fatal in kittens who aren't treated for it. They go down VERY fast. Even if you have an adult cat, do not ignore it. They will feel really unwell. A cat who hides under beds or furniture lot is usually sick. Especially so if that is not their habit. Just noticing loose stools in your cat will let you fix the problem as early as possible. Another way to tell if you cat is sick can be: lethargy and fatigue, floppiness, refusal to eat, unusual aggression, unusual lack of purring, miowing in pain, ears folded back or down, not wanting to play, increased drinking or no drinking, and very large pupils constantly. You kitty might not want to be even touched. If they are dehydrated their pee will smell stronger, be less frequent, and a darker colour. Get to know your pet's usual bathroom habits and behaviour.
I just went through a period of stress because my Siamese kitten had serious diarrhea for plus minus 2-3 weeks. After some research I realized the problem was cow milk. My cat was allergic to it. I stopped giving him milk and took the normal cat pellets away. I gave him a raw egg mixed with rice for two days as a diet. On day 1-4, in the morning, I gave him an eighth portion of an Allerway 5, Levocetrizine dhydrochloride 5mg, tablet crushed mixed with a quarter teaspoon of cornflour and half teaspoon of water. From day 3-5 I gave him his normal cat pellets sprinkled with quarter teaspoon of cornflour. From day 5 his stomach became normal and his diarrhea was something of the past. I did this treatment whilst I noticed that he was not ok and stopped the treatment as soon as I noticed that things are becoming normal. This ensured that the kitten is not overdosed in which case could cause other problems.
hi i live in Latvia whit my 5 cats and i love cats but my kitty ho is a girl when she was born she was so smal and she started growing up she was still small but the other 3 kittys ho is Boys there chubby and fat..? but i new something wrong whit the girl and some days ago my cat started to be Sick she vometed like 3 time a day her belly started to not be fat and she isn't eating anything my mom said that she eated a bone and its Stuck in her trothe and she might die but i dont want her to die and i cry all day I know you Cant do anything but i just wanted to say it and i said to my mom that we can go check her whats wrong but my moms said that its too much money to go check her... Thanks for reading have a good day :)
kitty tree playsgames tell your mom to take her to the vet because she is part of the family, and that if she lets her die its exactly like not letting you go o the doctor because your choking to death. Keep telling her untill she gives in and if she tries to punish you keep talking back, punishment is worth saving the life of your cat.
I think what you're doing to save these sweet little babies is amazing! I just found your videos and would love to help you. I had 4 little furry babies that we rescued but have lost 2 to kidney disease & liver cancer and it has broken my heart. We'd love to help you save these babies, please let me know how we can help whether buying products you need or financial support.
This was really helpful! We found a kitten (maybe 4-5 weeks old) and she has diarrhea bad. We are giving her kitten formula and waiting to see a vet. Tomorrow is Thanksgiving, but hoping we can be seen the day after. The diarrhea is frustrating because she will randomly go while holding her.
After raising 2 human babies, I'm experienced in keeping track of daily poop & pee. Any parent who has dealt with pediatricians expect questions on quantity, color, smell, consistency and frequency. Same with vetenarians and cats. I scoop the box daily. How can I not notice. Lol. 😎🐱 I love her videos ❤️💕
I was wondering how you able to afford the vet services. If you are volunteering are there places you can get discounts? or do you fully pay out of pocket? when getting medication are you able to buy it online for more affordable prices or do you have to buy it from a vet where prices are usual way high?
Heather Vazquez if you're feeding powdered KMR, mix it 5:1 for a couple of days then gradually back it down to 3:1. KMR has a tendency to cause constipation in some kittens.
Try giving your kitten more of whatever type of milk your giving. I'm not saying rush it or pushing the kitten to drink more. Just try that and possibly try giving your cat water. 🐈
Recommending scales to measure smol units (kittens) in smol units.:D I’m listening. I really am listening. I mean you never know when you’d need this. But I can’t stop laughing with her hair between cuts. It falls further forward on one shoulder. You’re brilliant Kitten Lady. I hope I can get a T-shirt & donate one day to help support the cause if you ship internationally (I really hope and yes I do support my local charities too when I can afford it).
you are a true life saver I am a cat lady like you to I love animals and cats I have to cats o have had like 5 I reused them all and if it was not for you then cats would be even more hurt so I am so proud to have a person like you to help cats all around the world I live in hawaii and there is a lot of lose cats I always ask my mom if they are ok then when I see a cat lose I crg because animals mean the world to me
Thank you so much for your love on little kittens and for your help making these awesome videos! My kitty has diarhhea for a few days now, I would run to the vet in an hour to see what is going on ..
So, beside the very precious informations and cute footage, DANG, girl, you look good! This lightening really make your eyes pop :) Thank you for providing so much teaching 💕
When I grow up i hope I'll be like you! Okay not exactly, but I want to help kittens as well. Also puppy, i just love animals. So thanks for your helping videos! Keep up the good work!

I caught a feral kitten around 2 months ago (he was around 7-9 weeks), and he had pretty bad diarrhea. He was pot bellied, and skinny. We dewormed him (he puked up a roundworm soon after we caught him), but his poop was still liquid for a bit afterwards, so we tried different kitten foods. We found one that worked, and just after one day, his poop was solid, and he hasn't gotten diarrhea since.
He put on a lot of weight afterwards, and his activity levels increased dramatically.
He's 2.7kgs now, and has his adult canines coming through :)
Hey what food did u feed your cat? Mine has worms too n is vomiting n has loose motions
@@manishitachoudhary8967 you have to deworm it first because it wont gain weight nor lose pot belly with worms.. there is paste or pills that you can give kitten to deworm it, or ask vet to do it
@@standingfortruth4043 hi thanks for the reply 😀 got them dewormed and now they are chonky potatoes
Thanks Hannah for all you do for kittens and cats. You're a life saver 😊🐺👍
what to do if young cats suffer from vomiting and are not eating any thing? My young male cat is suffering from that and when he eats cat food he vomit immediately i should be thankful if you can tell me or give me any sort of directions what i should do. Thank you
ashi minoz vet!! Go to vet every time you have something wrong in your cats! :(
we dont really have any vets around where i live its in the other city so its a long time
Go to a vet immediately. Go to the other city. Your cat can't go without eating. Plain rice and canned pumpkin can help AFTER SEEING THE VET.
Either way, you should go there, even if its far away. The kitten's life could be in danger D=
i guess your right thanks
i have no catts or kittens but i watch this every day
Hey Litten Lady,
Can you do an in-dept series on how to care for cats and kittens? Something for people (fe. me) who haven't cared for a cat and want to learn. Cheers!
I love all of these precious babies!!! Thank you for what you do for the kitties!!!
I just started weaning my 3 kittens and one of them has liquid poop, I guess no solid food for her yet🥺 honestly kitten lady you're a life saver for so many cat lovers. This is my first litter so I'm scared of doing something that'll harm them
What ended up happening to your kitten that had diarrhea
how's your kitten?
He got better and i gave it to my friend since we can't keep too many cats at home😁
@@lilies_are_nice2610 what did you do to cure the liquid poop? my kitten has wet poop. We already went to the vet 3 days ago but it is still the same.
@@acatspectator it actually got better by itself, i stopped giving her solid food and just let her nurse on her mom and it got better, i read that this happens when the stomach is not yet ready for solid food
You are amazing. Today my kittens have diarrhea, a lot came out of one. The person who found one of the kittens gave them milk, then I had to give them something to drink and found a site that said to use goats milk. I have only had them since Thursday evening. I think they have food issues. You said no milk and I think they have been stressed trying to find mom. Plus it was a very very hot day about 100 degrees when I found them. Today you taught me to immediately get a dewormer. My Vet can't see them for a couple of weeks. I may have to find another vet. Your amazing, thank you.
Very helpful! Thank you!
Also I love the mature white cat strolling around in the background :-)
You are the BEST kitten lady. I wish you tremendous success with your work(saving kitten lives) and loads of happiness in your life..... May God look after you and empower you....
I try to do the same thing and when I can save lives I feel myself immeasurably grateful. There is a lot I learnt from you, and for that I thank you as well.
This is so helpfull
I just wanted to say how much I enjoy your videos your videos are very well done and they’ve helped me more than any other videos on UA-cam thank you so much Kitten lady
JUst wanted to tell you that I appreciate your videos. Always great information with a dose of kitten cuteness!
I foster for the Humane Society and currently have 1 foster cat and 7 foster kittens who are currently 5 weeks.
1:10 Eww and Aww at the same time
THANK YOU KITTEN LADY!!!!! wWhen what I was trying didn't work, I would try something else. Thanks for reminding me that taking a step back is the right direction. I took a step back and went to stage 2 KRM. That helped. Then I took one more step back to kitten formula. Things have cleared up for now and this kitten has her appetite back too. Thanks again for presenting this information in an easy and pleasant way to digest. I also loved your information on point cats.
This is great! It’s the same with very young babies and children. And I’m not surprised that you can tell a lot about what’s going through their poops.
This helps so much Kitten Lady! Thank you soooooooo much. I'm glad the noodles are doing better :)
Diarrhoea can cause very rapid dehydration which is serious. Its bad in adult cats and fatal in kittens who aren't treated for it. They go down VERY fast. Even if you have an adult cat, do not ignore it. They will feel really unwell. A cat who hides under beds or furniture lot is usually sick. Especially so if that is not their habit. Just noticing loose stools in your cat will let you fix the problem as early as possible. Another way to tell if you cat is sick can be: lethargy and fatigue, floppiness, refusal to eat, unusual aggression, unusual lack of purring, miowing in pain, ears folded back or down, not wanting to play, increased drinking or no drinking, and very large pupils constantly. You kitty might not want to be even touched. If they are dehydrated their pee will smell stronger, be less frequent, and a darker colour. Get to know your pet's usual bathroom habits and behaviour.
If you realised her shirt was Mortan salt but just that its raining cats not salt
cute babies god bless you :)
I just went through a period of stress because my Siamese kitten had serious diarrhea for plus minus 2-3 weeks. After some research I realized the problem was cow milk. My cat was allergic to it. I stopped giving him milk and took the normal cat pellets away. I gave him a raw egg mixed with rice for two days as a diet. On day 1-4, in the morning, I gave him an eighth portion of an Allerway 5, Levocetrizine dhydrochloride 5mg, tablet crushed mixed with a quarter teaspoon of cornflour and half teaspoon of water. From day 3-5 I gave him his normal cat pellets sprinkled with quarter teaspoon of cornflour. From day 5 his stomach became normal and his diarrhea was something of the past. I did this treatment whilst I noticed that he was not ok and stopped the treatment as soon as I noticed that things are becoming normal. This ensured that the kitten is not overdosed in which case could cause other problems.
we found a stray kitten that had diarrhea. We tried getting her better with no experience and she died. I really wish I saw your video in time.😭
@@KP-ce6fx How nasty and cruel you are!!
She obviously was having a hard time dealing with it, and there you go making things worse!!
😒😒😿✝️⚜️
You have given me new hope in the human race

Thanks for reading have a good day :)
Im so sorry i will never understand how that feels but im just sorry
kitty tree playsgames take her to a vet!
MacyPlays yes I told mom but She said its too much money
😭😭😭
kitty tree playsgames tell your mom to take her to the vet because she is part of the family, and that if she lets her die its exactly like not letting you go o the doctor because your choking to death. Keep telling her untill she gives in and if she tries to punish you keep talking back, punishment is worth saving the life of your cat.
It's so funny my cat comes over to watch your videos when I play them. He loves watching all the kittens
My cat poop is bloody I was crying when I saw it I cleaned her poop over 30 times UGH
That sounds like a bacterial infection. (Or if it’s an elderly cat can be a problem requiring surgery) Hope the cat is better now.
I think what you're doing to save these sweet little babies is amazing! I just found your videos and would love to help you. I had 4 little furry babies that we rescued but have lost 2 to kidney disease & liver cancer and it has broken my heart. We'd love to help you save these babies, please let me know how we can help whether buying products you need or financial support.
I really care for kittens
Poor kitties
IamLivloo you’re stupid
Allisongirl Kutiecorn98 why is he/she stupid
This was really helpful! We found a kitten (maybe 4-5 weeks old) and she has diarrhea bad. We are giving her kitten formula and waiting to see a vet. Tomorrow is Thanksgiving, but hoping we can be seen the day after. The diarrhea is frustrating because she will randomly go while holding her.
How is she?
I think this batch of kittens is the cutest so far!
Aaawwwww!!!!😹😿😸🙀😺😽😼😻😾🐈🐱
After raising 2 human babies, I'm experienced in keeping track of daily poop & pee. Any parent who has dealt with pediatricians expect questions on quantity, color, smell, consistency and frequency. Same with vetenarians and cats. I scoop the box daily. How can I not notice. Lol. 😎🐱 I love her videos ❤️💕
I was wondering how you able to afford the vet services. If you are volunteering are there places you can get discounts? or do you fully pay out of pocket? when getting medication are you able to buy it online for more affordable prices or do you have to buy it from a vet where prices are usual way high?
I needed this about a week ago😂 My kittens got it from worms/stress from coming home. At least that’s what the vet told me
I have a little with a bit of the opposite issue. My fosters are pooping regularly but the poop is a little on the dry side. Any tips?
Heather Vazquez if you're feeding powdered KMR, mix it 5:1 for a couple of days then gradually back it down to 3:1. KMR has a tendency to cause constipation in some kittens.
Try giving your kitten more of whatever type of milk your giving. I'm not saying rush it or pushing the kitten to drink more. Just try that and possibly try giving your cat water. 🐈
The Ancient Shykir
Milk is really dangerous for cats, though
I love that you care.
I'm watching this because kittens are cute
I don't even own a cat 😂😂
Recommending scales to measure smol units (kittens) in smol units.:D
I’m listening. I really am listening. I mean you never know when you’d need this. But I can’t stop laughing with her hair between cuts. It falls further forward on one shoulder.
You’re brilliant Kitten Lady. I hope I can get a T-shirt & donate one day to help support the cause if you ship internationally (I really hope and yes I do support my local charities too when I can afford it).
Cute.!!!!!
XD awww CUTEEEEEEEEE
