My cat suddenly got diarrhea without eating anything; I gave it some smectite but it didn’t help. It’s still energetic, but I don’t know why it keeps having diarrhea.
Frequent diarrhea with normal energy is usually from indigestion, gastroenteritis, or parasites. Check the food for spoilage, withhold food briefly, and give pet probiotics. If it eases, adjust the diet and feed small, frequent meals; if it persists, see a vet.

How can I tell if my puppy has eaten too much?
An overfed puppy gets a bloated belly and may look uncomfortable—scratching its stomach, panting, or lying still. Some vomit undigested kibble, then yellow fluid or white foam if gastroenteritis develops. Long-term overfeeding causes obesity and related disease.
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.
The day before yesterday it had diarrhea with blood at the end; I gave Revolution (topical dewormer), probiotics, and smectite powder. Yesterday the stool was formed, but early this morning it had diarrhea again
Diarrhea with blood in dogs can have various causes, including indigestion, malabsorption, digestive tract injury, parasite infection, enteritis, and viral infection. Based on your description, the dog still had diarrhea after deworming and medication, which suggests the cause may not be parasites — the medicine didn't match the problem. Take the dog to a vet for relevant tests and apply targeted treatment based on the results.
Dog vomits white foam and yellow fluid with undigested kibble, won’t eat or drink, only sleeps
This is usually acute gastroenteritis, possibly from parvovirus, coronavirus, bacteria, or parasites. Unvaccinated dogs should be tested for viral disease. If just digestive upset, give fluids for hydration and electrolytes, then anti-inflammatory, anti-vomiting, and anti-diarrhea meds.
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.
My cat’s belly grew large within a week, it keeps getting thinner, the abdomen feels firm not fluid-filled, still active but defecating less, occasionally loafs, no fever, clear eyes, eats less kibble but still wants human food. Is it FIP, ascites, or indigestion?
A swollen belly with overall weight loss can come from an intestinal blockage, gas, or ascites. Blockage and gas cause hard abdomen and reduced stool, while ascites may indicate FIP or low-protein liver effusion - only a vet exam can tell for sure.
What should I do if my dog has had diarrhea for two consecutive days?
Diarrhea has many causes—diet, indigestion, gastritis, parasites, infectious disease. Observe energy and appetite; if normal, it's likely dietary—fast, give probiotics, adjust diet. If no improvement, see a vet.
My dog is passing blood in its stool and won’t eat; it got chilled during the recent cold snap and has a cough.
Blood in the stool and loss of appetite can be caused by gastroenteritis, intestinal scratches, pancreatitis, parasites, poisoning, or viral disease. Take your dog to a vet for diagnosis; if it isn't vaccinated, infectious disease should be the first suspect and prompt care is important.
