My cat has bloody diarrhea. Is it worms? What if I can't afford a vet?

Question

My cat is having diarrhea and blood in stools ( dark a little bit) . I have noticed some fleas on him the other day so I gave him a bath. Can you tell me please what are the causes and what should I do if my cat has worms because I can't afford a vet visit. Thank you. Pet's info: Cat | Mixed Breed | Male | unneutered

Intestinal worms are a cause of both diarrhea and blood in the stools in cats, but it can also be caused by GI polyps, a foreign body, severe GI disease, trauma to the GI tract, and GI tumors among others. Having blood in the feces is serious, and it's always recommended to have a cat with that checked out by a vet. I would see if your vet accepts payment plans, if there is a low cost clinic in your area, or check the internet for resources to afford a vet in France. There are OTC dewormers you can get to treat worms, but Vee should still see a vet for the blood in his stools.
