Diarrhea in young kittens can indeed be worrisome, especially if it's occurring frequently. There are several potential causes for this, including dietary changes, parasites, infections, or even stress.

First, ensure Beans is eating a high-quality, easily digestible kitten food. Sometimes, switching to a bland diet like boiled chicken and rice can help settle their stomach. Just be sure to introduce any new foods gradually to avoid further digestive upset.

Next, it's crucial to keep him hydrated, as diarrhea can lead to dehydration, especially in young kittens. Make sure Beans has constant access to fresh water.

Regarding the litter box, since your kitten is pooping outside of it, this might be due to the urgency caused by diarrhea. Keep the litter box clean and easily accessible.

If Beans' symptoms persist or worsen, I recommend taking him to the vet as soon as possible to determine his exact condition. Because he is still very young, these symptoms can be even more devastating.

If you have any further questions or need additional advice, please don't hesitate to ask. Thank you.
