My cat had unconscious stool leakage on the 21st, thought mild prolapse, but on the 22nd a vet found coccidia and gave medicine; the anus keeps leaking watery stool—normal?
Leakage can be mild colitis or loosened anal sphincter from diarrhea; coccidia causes frequent watery/bloody/mucus stools. Treat with sulfa drugs and amprolium for 1-2 weeks plus symptomatic care; if dehydrated, give fluids to correct balance.
My dog keeps vomiting yellow water with blood and won’t eat anything
Persistent vomiting of yellow water with blood is mainly considered from intestinal foreign bodies, acute gastroenteritis, parasites, or viral infection — all damage the gut and cause bleeding. If spirits and appetite are good and stools normal, try gut-regulating medicine. If no relief or the dog is weak, get a detailed vet exam.
My dog has vomited for three days, yellow fluid on days one and three and undigested kibble on day two. The vet said it looked fine and sent us home with medicine; day one of meds no vomit, but today (day two) it threw up kibble again. It has appetite, good spirits, normal stools, wet nose, no fever. What could it be?
Vomiting yellow fluid and undigested food suggests dietary upset or gastroenteritis; feed soaked hypoallergenic kibble in small frequent meals and nothing else. If it continues, get fecal, blood, and imaging tests.
What if a cat has soft stools all the time?
Chronic soft stools can come from poor diet, gastroenteritis, parasites, or pancreatitis. Untreated, it may worsen to diarrhea, watery stool, or blood. Long-term cases from diet or chronic gastritis can cause malnutrition and affect development. Get fecal, X-ray, and blood tests.
It’s had diarrhea for many days, won’t eat, is listless, has uncoordinated limbs, and the stool is brownish-red. What should I do?
From the photo, the dog is passing blood, and together with fasting, lethargy, and poor coordination this is initially judged as acute gastroenteritis. If not fully vaccinated, infectious disease must also be considered. Take your dog to a vet for thorough testing and targeted treatment.
What could be causing stool like this?
Vomiting and diarrhea together may signal hemorrhagic gastroenteritis, gastric ulcer, or parvovirus/coronavirus infection. If unvaccinated, get a blood count, fecal exam, and virus screen at once. Parvo needs antiviral serum and interferon plus supportive meds; severe cases may need hospitalization for fluids.
Suddenly noticed my cat has yellow soft stools today; it didn’t eat anything inappropriate, just dry food, but could it have caught a chill from being taken out yesterday?
Soft stools may be a sign of gut flora imbalance caused by a drop in immunity after being chilled or frightened during the outing. In this case, give the cat some pet probiotics to regulate the gut, and keep it warm with a single, consistent diet. If symptoms persist or worsen, give an appropriate amount of amoxicillin clavulanate and bismuth subcarbonate tablets to reduce inflammation and stop diarrhea. If there's no relief after medication, take it to a vet for a fecal and blood test to check for intestinal parasites or other diseases.
My cat will not eat, barely defecates, and when it does it goes outside the box with a bit of blood – what’s wrong?
Not eating can be gut upset, parasites, pickiness or stress; little stool is from little food. Blood in stray stool suggests parasites or a sharp object; try soft food and probiotics, and see a vet if it persists.
My dog ate bone, vomited, then had diarrhea with blood for a day
Bone ingestion causing vomit, diarrhea, and blood may mean digestive tract injury or obstruction since dogs cannot digest bone. Treatment includes antibiotics, hemostatics, antiemetics, and surgery if blocked.
Dog has been pooping blood for three days
Bloody stool can come from gastroenteritis, pancreatitis, parasites, or infectious disease. Unvaccinated dogs first suspect parvovirus or coronavirus. See a vet to confirm cause and severity.
