Digestion issues related to diet can cause loose stool in cats. Put the cat on a natural food like Alpha with prebiotics that will balance his digestive system and help him to have a more solid, healthy stool. This will also make the litter box easier to clean.

What is wrong if a cat has blood in its feces?

AnswerThis could be anything from worms to intestinal bleeding so it's best to take your cat to the vets right away and get a proper diagnosis. It is important diagnostically to determine if the blood is IN or ON the feces. The anal sacs in a healthy cat exude a thin "slime" on the surface of the feces during defecation. If the anal sacs become infected or crusted shut, then burst, blood can be included in this coating, however, this is more prevalent in dogs than cats.

My cat has blood in its feces and I've taken it to the vet and they say there is nothing wrong So what do I do then?

As long as the cat is acting as it usually does, let some time go by (a month?) and if it happens again, either take the cat to the same vet or to another vet for a second opinion. Take a sample of the feces into the office with you and ask them to test it for blood.

Is cleaning a house that is covered in cat feces dangerous for a human?

Yes. Where there is cat feces, there is also cat urine, and urine decomposes into ammonia, which is a poisonous gas. In addition, cat feces contains bacteria, and in a house full of cat feces, the feces become aerosolized, which increases the chance of the bacteria to be inhaled. The decomposition of cat feces releases sulfur-containing gases, some of which might be changed to sulfuric acid when dissolved in water (as they would be in the lungs).
