My kitten is lethargic, not eating, and has diarrhea. Is this normal?

Question

Hello! I’m a working woman and stay with my parents. I go to work from 9-7:30 and the kitten(60days) is left alone at home. My mom doesn’t like cats so she doesn’t interact with him. It’s been just 3 days that the kitten has come and he has been very active the first 2 days. Today after I came from office , I saw he is very lethargic and just wants to sleep. I’m worried if this is normal. He hasn’t eaten proper food for today and also his stool is semi liquidy. Please let me know about It. Pet's info: Cat | Persian | Male | 2 months and 6 days old | 1lb

No, this is not normal. Not eating is very abnormal in young kittens. Most common reasons for the behavior you described is viral disease and internal parasites. Other options are trauma (like he fell and hurt himself) and intestinal obstruction. Milo really needs to be assessed by a veterinarian as soon as possible.
