Answer by  Thea (37)

The cat should be seen by a veterinarian. It is helpful to bring a sample of the most recent stool to the office with you. It can be stored in a ziploc bag and should be kept cool but not frozen. Bloody stools can occur for many different reasons; dietary indiscretion, parasitic infection, cancer, or even stress.
