Congrats on your new kitten, but I’m sorry Salem has diarrhea. If he had worms and was given a deworming treatment, then you can see more diarrhea due to the dead worms being passed. The diarrhea should improve, but if it doesn’t in the next 24-48 hours, then I would take him back into the vet. I hope this helps.
