I'm so sorry that Alva is having troubles, and sorry that we weren't able to get to your question sooner. I can understand why you are worried about your girl! Yes, she could be distressed and upset from the loss of the kitten. Give her some TLC and some time; if she is still having discharge in another 5-7 days, try to get her in to the vet. If she's acting otherwise sick (vomiting, diarrhea, etc), please have her seen as well. Thank you for asking Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach.
