Kitten ate adult food, now vomiting, diarrhea, blood in stool.

Question

My kitten accidentally ate adult cat food and started vomiting and having diarrhea ever since. I took away her food and water and gave her Pedialyte, but now I found blood in her stool and she is very weak. She refuses to eat or drink anything. Please help. Pet's info: Cat | American Shorthair | Female | unspayed

It sounds as Selina is suffering from a gastrointestinal condition, possibly an infection. it might not be related to the adult food she ate, the blood and complete lack of appetite is very worrying. i would recommend taking her to the vet the first chance you get, she will need to be checked first, if the vet thinks it's a simple gastrointestinal infection she will need an anti vomiting injection, antibiotics and a special food for a few days in order to get better.
