He is about 1 1/2 years old has been in the house always is neutered and I also have another male cat who has no problems and a toy poodle in the house with no medical problems.

Yes blood in stool is not a healthy sign. Has it taken any medicine in these days? It can also cause problem in digestive and intestinal track and cause stool in blood. It can be a cancer or a disease named as Melena in which blood is not seemed to be very fresh. More chances are toward the fact that there are parasites like hookworms and roundworms that are causing blood in stool. These parasites are eating up your cat from inside and also not letting it get energy from it normal food. That's why it is eating more to fulfill its hunger. Consult a vet soon.

I took him to the vet the only thing that they have came up with is it could be caused by eating house plants, nothing else wrong with him as far their test are concerned. They said as long as he is being active and doesn't seem sick just to try to keep him out of the plants.
