kitten acting lathargic and oder coming fron anus what could it be

Answer by KAte
Hi
Kittens are prone to tummy upsets as their systems are having to get used to solid food etc and they are also more susceptible to picking up little bugs while their immune system gets strong, so it could just be that he has a slight bug. However if his symptoms continue for more than a couple of days or if he gets any worse then it is best to have him checked over by a vet. Kittens can go down hill quickly and dehydration can also be a problem so make sure he gets plenty of fresh water. Also check to make sure he doesn't;t have fleas, they can actually kill a kitten due to causing anemia.

I hope he is better soon

best wishes Kate
