What does ‘rabbit urine oxidation’ mean?
After a rabbit urinates, prolonged contact with air oxygen causes oxidation, turning the urine red — this is normal; just clean the droppings promptly and keep the environment clean to avoid infection. Distinguish oxidation from blood in urine, which is usually from gastroenteritis and needs prompt vet care.
My cat is vomiting yellow fluid and won’t eat
Vomiting yellow fluid and not eating can be from infectious disease, foreign-body obstruction, hairballs, parasites, or acute gastroenteritis. First rule out infectious disease and do blood work at a vet, then treat the cause. Withhold food half a day to a day and watch; frequent vomiting risks dehydration — give fluids and an anti-vomiting injection. Self-medicating may worsen it; a vet visit is best.
Why Is My Parrot Fish’s Belly Swollen?
A swollen parrot-fish belly means overfeeding and indigestion, pregnancy, or gut disease. Stop feeding and medicate for indigestion, ease water changes during pregnancy, and use norfloxacin or a stronger mix for enteritis - but find the cause first.
What foods can’t hamsters eat?
Hamsters can't eat fruit pits and seeds, pungent vegetables, or human snacks. Fruit pits like apple or pear cores contain cyanide and can poison them, causing vomiting and diarrhea. Human snacks have many additives and may cause digestive or kidney problems. Also avoid too much watery produce to prevent diarrhea or acute gastroenteritis.
What are the causes of a cat bleeding?
From the photo, the cat is bleeding and has diarrhea, but the bleeding site cannot be determined from the photo; it could be external or internal injury. If external, it may be cut by a sharp object and stressed into diarrhea — treat the wound and give probiotics. If diarrhea with blood, consider gastrointestinal bleeding, bacterial gastroenteritis, or intestinal laceration, and see a vet.
I’ve been supplementing calcium, but the right claw is weak and it walks unsteadily
Common causes of an unsteady bird are a cold, enteritis, or calcium deficiency. Based on your description you supplement calcium, ruling that out, so the unsteadiness may be from a cold or enteritis. For a cold, keep it warm and avoid drafts, add nutrition to its feed, and give cold medicine if needed. For enteritis, oxytetracycline can help.
My cat had a bowel movement on the bed with blood and mucus in it, some formed and some watery, but its energy and appetite are fine — what could be the cause?
A cat passing stool with blood and mucus, with both formed and loose stool, could be due to parasitic infection, intestinal flora imbalance, the cat food itself, proctitis, or acute enteritis. First, do not overlook parasites just because the cat is regularly dewormed — besides common tapeworms, roundworms, or hookworms that cause intestinal ulcers and bloody stool, coccidia and giardia, which routine dewormers may not cover, can also cause diarrhea and bloody stool.
What happens to an alligator snapping turtle if the water is too hot?
They tolerate 3-35 C, but above 40 C they may have body dysfunction, poor appetite, breathing trouble, and heatstroke. Hot water also speeds bacteria and parasites, raising risks of fungus, mouth ulcers, and enteritis. Keep water about 28-30 C and adjust by season; keep it clean.
My turtle will not sink in water, floats at the back, with legs stretched straight
Floating can be stress or illness. Stress floating happens after sudden changes like a new turtle or much deeper water, with reduced appetite; rest it in a quiet corner to adapt. Colds, pneumonia, bloat, or gastroenteritis can also cause floating, diagnosed by other signs.
My dog has a pimple on its left leg with a little scab, and blood in its stool
Bloody stool usually comes from gut disease, viral disease, or parasites, such as a gut foreign object or severe gastroenteritis, and distemper or parvovirus often include it. Get a full vet check to find the cause; do not let it worsen.
