My cat is alert but hasn’t eaten for 3 days and keeps having diarrhea — what’s wrong?

A cat that's alert but not eating and has ongoing diarrhea may have gastroenteritis, a gut foreign body, parasites, or pancreatitis; if unvaccinated, an infection is possible. Long anorexia plus diarrhea leads to dehydration, so see a vet soon to find the cause.

My dog vomited food and white foam, fasted, ate porridge, then vomited again — what should I do?

Vomiting food and white foam usually means indigestion or GI disease from overeating. Fast for a day and give probiotics; if vomiting continues with low energy, see a vet to confirm the cause.

What happens if I feed my dog chili pepper?

Dogs must not eat chili. It irritates the mouth (crying, pacing, gulping water) and the gut — excess acid, cramps, stomach pain, diarrhea, vomiting — and in severe cases needs a vet. The irritant can also inflame the anal skin, making defecation painful and the area red and swollen.

Why does my cat have a dirty rear end?

A dirty rear without tearing or prolapse is usually from diarrhea. Clean the area and find the underlying cause of the abnormal defecation to prevent persistent diarrhea from causing anal prolapse.

My hamster had diarrhea, then stopped eating and drinking, and now isn’t defecating — what should I do?

Diarrhea followed by refusal to eat or drink can mean cold, stress, gut trouble, or parasites. See a vet promptly to avoid collapse; withhold food 12–24h only if spoiled-food upset is suspected.
