My kitten has bloody diarrhea, licks butt. Should I be concerned?

Question

My cat is under a year old. I took him to the vet this week because he has excessively been licking his butt. His poop is also like cow patties instead of solid poop, I got him tested for worms, but it came back negative, but the vet never told me what he had then. They prescribed some stuff to put in his food to help him. Since then, he has been leaving little poop droplets in all rooms of my apartment and little drops of blood from his butt. His poop has blood in it. Should I be concerned? Pet's info: Cat | Mixed Breed | Male | neutered | 9 months and 16 days old | 13 lbs

Thank you for contacting Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach with your question about Cheeto. Poor boy! Yes this is concerning. I'd take him back into the vet in the morning. He may need further testing like blood work to determine what is causing his problems. I hope this helps!
