Since you mention your parents, we assume that you are still young. Any abnormality with a pet should get vet attention--if money is a problem, borrow it from your parents and pay it back a bit at a time. When you own a cat or other pet, you are literally the person keeping them alive. It would seem that your parents don't realize that. As for blood in the stool, my Harvey has gastroenterological problems, and does produce the occasional bloody stool. My favorite vet (I have three) told me that the most common cause for bloody stools was the cat having ingested human hair. Don't know if he was right or not, but I would advise you to put the "bloody stool" (while still fresh) in a Baggie and take it and your kitty to the vet. We're hoping and praying here that nothing major is going on--in which case, the vet visit and stool examination should not cause that much money. Hugs and purrs.
