Hi everyone. I am very new to having a cat and also new (obviously) to this site. On Tuesday (23 Feb 16) I found a little kitten and rescued her. I took her to my vet. He thinks she is about 8 weeks old. She has a bit of a cold and he gave her some antibiotics. She lost most of her whiskers (they are different lengths) and she had fleas and ticks which she was treated for. Otherwise she seemed perfectly fine. She didn't seem to know how to eat the wet food so I fed her little bit at a time with my finger (she licked it off). She seems tame and very playful. However, I am worried about her stool. It is 'a very dark brown color and smells absolutely horrid. Also, last night she had some diarrhea, it got stuck to her back paws and I had to clean her. Could it be from whatever she was eating before I found her? Is it normal? Should I take her to the vet? I have a tendency to overreact when it comes to my pets and I don't want to bither my vet unnecesarily.
