Hi and thanks for your post on Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! While is is hard to say what the cause of the diarrhea is without seeing Nada first, I can certainly offer a suggestion. A parasitic infection, bacterial or viral infection could be possibilities. I would advise taking Nada to her veterinarian for a fecal test. I would get her in sooner rather than later as diarrhea in a young cat can be very dehydrating especially if she is also not drinking any water. Best of luck to you and Nada!
