It sounds like you should try and get her to a vet. If she is going to the toilet uncontrollably it is serious enough for a vet visit.

Where did you get her from and has she been wormed yet? What color is the stool?

There is absolutely no real help anyone can give you but to give you a laundry list of serious things that could be wrong with your cat and tell you to take it to the vet. :/

I know what it's like to be broke, but this sounds VERY serious to me. If you care about your cat, you need to help her.

If you can afford an internet connection, you can afford to get her to a vet. Please understand that anything unusual demands a vet exam, no one can diagnose on the net. If she has diarrhea, this can cause serious dehydration which then leads to vital organ damage, you cannot take risks with her health, get her seen by a vet TODAY! Your vet may want to get a fecal sample to test for parasites or bacteria, and you need to discuss her diet with him in the event it is not appropriate for her.

See a vet now, she's depending on you to do right by her.

I have to agree. If you chose to get a kitty you have to be able to afford vet visits and shots and spay/neutering. Please do right by her and get her seen. Does she even have all her shots? Is she neutered? Is she indoors only? Was she tested for diseases and parasites when you first got her? This is not just a fun thing to have, it is a real animal that needs attention and protection and is a big responsibility please make sure she gets to vet asap. Even if it "clears" up there can still be a serious problem. What might cost you a vet visit and the cost of a fecal and some meds if there is something wrong right now if you take her can lead up to a lot more money if you dont and she gets worse and dehydrated. People think not taking them due to money issues now means they save money and in reality they dont'.

You don't even know how much it will cost until you get her in there. Kitty should have been #1 on the budget list when you got her. (humans, animals then the fun stuff go in that order of budgeting)

Hugs and good luck, hope you get kitty in asap.
