Pet's info: Cat | American Shorthair | Female | spayed | 4 years and 6 months old | 12 lbs
Hi I just noticed a streak of blood from my cat on the floor. She had just gotten out of the litter box so I checked that. The stool looked normal but had a red coating. I was wondering if this was something I should be concerned about. Thanks

She might have eaten something spoiled that is causing this. withhold food for 8 hours then offer her boiled boneless chicken and rice every 6 hours in small portions. if she is eating and not vomiting, continue with this diet for 2 days. After 2 days, you can put her back gradually on her normal food. If the blood in the stools do not resolve, take her to the vet to get treatment.
