Just adopted a male 12 week old kitten that had its last worm vaccination. Noticed this evening a pink mucus.

Question

Mucus was secreting out of his r****m? What do you think is caused by? Could it be the effects of the vaccination?

Answer 1

yes, but still take him to the vet

Answer 2

If it is not a contraindication then it must be an iatrogenic process. Has his dietary intake changed over the last few days?

Answer 3

Well for worming they are usually given a yellow liquid when they are young and a pill (such as Drontal) as they get older. Vaccines are usually for upper-respiratiory and Fel/Fiv (feline Leukemia) So I wouldnt worry about it being a worm, BUT definetly call your vet ASAP it could be from the vaccine or if it is blood it could be a sign of Coccidae. Good Luck.

Answer 4

It could be colitis. Did you give him something new to eat? Take him to the vet ASAP.

Answer 5

I don't know, I've never seen that.  The pinkish coloration seems to indicate the presence of blood, and that's not good.  Call your vet as soon as you can, to ask.  You may need to take kitty back to the vet.
