Kittens with diarrhea and gas: Is it parasites, food, or shots?

Updated On September 23rd, 2025

Pet's info: Cat | Mixed Breed | Female | spayed

Good day my two kittens Skylar 6 months and Luna 11 weeks have diarrhea. I took luna in 2 weeks back and took her for her shots a day after her tummy started to be very loos and she started leaving oepsies outside the sand bowl * Now, Skylars tummy is also running like water and they have a lot of gas. I'm looking for advice please help! *

I recommend taking a fecal sample to your vet for fecal tests to be run to determine if they have parasites like worms. If so, then deworm them. Otherwise, try to keep them on a high-quality kitten food exclusively for several weeks to see if this resolves their diarrhea issues. Cat probiotics are also very helpful with diarrhea.
