Solomon will get loose from the worming. That is normal and should pass in about 2 days. The blood does seem quite common bengals and you should mainly be concerned if it is all the time or a dark red in the poo meaning it came from higher up in the digestive system.

Try increasing Solomon's dry food intake Vs the wet food and see if his poop firms up - this worked within 2 days for my little guy and we have not looked back since. Just make sure any changes are gradual if he hasn't had the dry food before. Another thing we do if Chats has an upset belly is giving him plain cooked chicken for a few meals as this is easy to digest, like when we are sick and just want plain toast!

If you look under health care or nutrition there is much more info. You can also use the search engine for words like "bloody" "stools" etc etc.

Good luck!!

thank you

Howdy,
My first post on this, or any, Bengal forum. Hooray!

If I could figure out the code for posting a photo I would.
Our Bengal is Toby and he's almost one year old now,

He had diarrhea and blood in his stool for the looooongest time and we tried all kinds of things. The vet found found a couple different kinds of bugs and took care of those but Toby continued with the loosie goosies and blood.

Finally I tried cooking (boiling) real chicken legs for him and fed him that a couple times a day to supplement his dry food. Somehow, that tightened him right up and got him on the right track.

I will have to try the chicken, Mojo has had runny stools since I got him and the vets have checked for parasites twice and nothing showed.

When we first got Jupiter, she had some runny poo. I boiled up chicken breast (it is a little leaner than the dark meat), and ran it through the food processor with a little water and mixed in plain rice. It cleared her up in no time. The extra water added to the chicken mixture helps it form up a bit, but also ads moisture they need so they don't get dehydrated. The rice helps firm things up My other cats loved it too
