My older cat died of feline panleukopenia and now the kitten is vomiting long, kibble-like bits—what should I do?
If the older cat died of feline panleukopenia and the kitten shared the same environment, the kitten is highly likely to have been infected, since the virus is extremely contagious and can survive indoors for months. Isolate any infected cat immediately and keep other cats away from the area. Because the kitten is already showing symptoms, take it to a veterinary clinic promptly for examination and treatment.
My one-month-old blue kitten vomits white liquid after a bowel movement — what causes this?
Vomiting can stem from indigestion, diet problems, or internal parasites; for an unvaccinated kitten also rule out infectious disease. Sudden food changes or unsuitable human food like milk can upset the gut. If the kitten is bright, fast it briefly and watch; if vomiting persists or other signs appear, see a vet.
My one-month-old blue kitten vomits white liquid after pooping — what could cause it?
Vomiting in cats has many causes — indigestion, diet changes, internal parasites, and (in unvaccinated kittens) infectious disease. Withhold food briefly if the kitten is bright, but see a vet if vomiting persists or other signs appear.
Why is my one-month-old kitten vomiting white liquid after defecating?
Vomiting in cats can be caused by indigestion, dietary issues, internal parasites, or—in unvaccinated cats—infectious disease.

What medication helps a kitten with watery eyes and lots of eye discharge?

I just brought a kitten home and noticed a white film over its eyes; now its eyes are discharging pus, and it won’t eat or drink or pass stool, only occasionally licking water and egg yolk
The heavy eye and nose discharge suggests a contagious disease such as feline rhinotracheitis, so a vet visit is urgent before the kitten's condition worsens from not eating. If a clinic isn't immediately accessible, clean the eyes, apply a pet-safe anti-inflammatory eye drop, and offer electrolytes, but these only ease discomfort and full treatment still requires a vet.

Sudden Bloody Stool in a Kitten: What Could It Be?

Why Is My Kitten’s Eye Suddenly Swollen?
A suddenly swollen eye can mean a viral infection like distemper, contagious conjunctivitis, or a simple bacterial infection. Each needs a different approach, so identify the cause first — antibiotic drops for infection, vet care for anything with other symptoms.
