Poor guy. IF he had black diarrhea then that indicates he could have blood in his stool. I think its best at this point to take him to your vet for prescription medications to help him recover. He needs a short course of antibiotics, a probiotic, and a bland diet to help him make a full recovery. I would stop the Pepto BIsmol immediately due to the bloody stool. You can go ahead and start feeding the bland diet of boiled plain chicken or lean ground turkey and rice for now until you can get him seen. I hope that your pet Kuu gets well soon! Best wishes and take care.
