How to Support a Cat with a Sensitive Stomach
Some cats have notoriously delicate digestions—the so-called glass stomach—prone to soft stools, diarrhea, and vomiting. The key to managing it is diet. Choose a limited-ingredient, single-protein hypoallergenic food, feed small meals several times a day, and always transition new food over seven days. Pet-specific probiotics (mixed into water below 40°C so the live cultures survive) help rebalance gut flora, while a calm, low-stress home prevents flare-ups. If symptoms persist or worsen, a vet check and possibly a prescription gastrointestinal diet are the right next steps.
