My 6 month old kitten is having runny, bloody, clear diarriah. Do I need to take him to the vet asap?

I would see the vet tomorrow if I were you. This is often caused by a parasite problem, giardia or coccidia.

Your vet can diagnose it with a simple fecal exam if this is the case and he can also give you an appropriate dewormer.

No matter what, a vet visit will be needed tomorrow.

Let me know if you still have questions.
