If its very bad I'd be tempted to take it to the vet, diarrhoea (how difficult to spell is that by the way??) in any young animal is not good.

Incidently, are you giving it cows milk? If you are, it's more likely to be that which is doing it.

Try live sheeps yoghurt. Just a small amount in her food. This was a tip from a breeder which I have found very effective.

Also just water to drink, not milk.

Stop the milk immediately. Cats, and especially kittens, should not be drinking milk.

She should be drinking water. Try feeding her boiled white rice with minced chicken for a few days;.

However, as BOO says if she has diarrhoea for any period of time she should be taken to a vet as soon as possible. It takes no time at all for a kitten to become dehydrated and very ill which can even lead to death quite quickly.

Sorry if this sounds harsh. I sincerely hope she recovers quickly.

I am with everyone else on this. NO milk. water only, to drink and rice and chicken to eat, and a visit to the vet.
