Offer safe chews like wooden toys, hay, and dried branches, enrich the environment, give exercise and interaction, keep it calm, and improve the diet. Clear harmful items such as detergent and disinfectant to prevent poisoning.

Sudden feed changes, overeating, or spoiled food also trigger loose droppings. Parasites, bacteria, or a cold from low temperatures need a vet. A simple home mix of oxytetracycline powder and probiotics can settle mild cases.
