Your kitten may have intestinal parasites, which is the most common cause of diarrhea in young kittens. This can cause vomiting and stomach upset as well. I would recommend taking your kitten into your vet to have a fecal done to check for intestinal parasites. The kitten may also need some antibiotics to help clear up the diarrhea and a medication to help settle his tummy so he starts eating again.
