Hi there,
How old is your cat?
Is the blood bright red?
How much?
Is the stool normal, loose or hard?
Indoor kitty?
Thanks,
Terri
Dear friend,
I am sorry your new baby is not feeling wel.
Blood in the stool of a kitty that young is usually caused by a parasite.Since Weasel was in the humane society he may have worms or protozoans:
coccidia http://www.marvistavet.com/html/coccidia.html
Giardia http://marvistavet.com/html/giardia.html
Of course swallowing a sharp non food item like an earing post could also cause this symptom.
To cure diarrhea add one tablespoon of infant rice cereal to your babys food every day.
Take a stool sample to your vet for evaluation.
May God bless you for adopting a shelter kitty.

Yes, I would suggest you add some canned food for your boy with a tablespoon of infant rice cereal to firm up the stool.
Cats are meat eaters and they do not get adequate nutrition from dry food alone
Best of luck with your sweet new boy,

I will always be here for both of you.
