What should I do if my kitten won’t eat, is lethargic and vomiting?
A kitten that won't eat, is lethargic and vomits usually has a gut problem — bacterial or viral enteritis, or intestinal parasites. Take it to a vet to confirm the cause. First, if unvaccinated, test for feline distemper with a strip; distemper mimics gastroenteritis with vomiting, diarrhea, lethargy, appetite loss, fever and can be fatal in ~10 days without treatment. If no distemper, it's usually gastroenteritis or parasites — treat the symptom and use probiotics.
What should I do if my cat keeps vomiting white mucus and foam?
Constant white foam may come from bitter food/medicine (rinse the mouth), or gastritis/esophagitis (see a vet if frequent). Heavy shedding with hair in vomit points to hairballs — give hairball paste.
Will a cat’s vomiting from catching a chill heal on its own?
Possibly—if infrequent, small amount, and no other symptoms, just keep it warm and avoid cold food; it may self-heal. If no improvement after 3 days, or fever, soft stool, lethargy, or runny nose appears, see a vet.
What medicine for a dog vomiting yellow fluid?
Find the cause before medicating. For indigestion, give probiotics for motility. For gastroenteritis with frequent, foul-smelling vomiting, withhold food and give pet anti-inflammatory and anti-emetic medicine plus probiotics; if no improvement, seek IV treatment. Distemper or parvovirus can also cause yellow vomit and need early veterinary care.
My dog ate a large amount of body wash and is vomiting blood — is there any hope of recovery?
Based on the description, the dog likely ingested body wash causing toxic reaction and acute hemorrhagic gastroenteritis. Early induction of vomiting and prompt hospital care give a good chance; even delayed cases need urgent vet assessment.
What medicine for a dog vomiting white foam?
Causes vary (gastritis, fast eating, pancreatitis, poisoning, parvovirus), so a vet must diagnose first. If only 1-2 episodes with normal appetite, fast 12 hours and give probiotics; if no improvement or frequent vomiting, get IV fluids.
What medicine for a cat vomiting yellow fluid?
Cat vomiting yellow fluid may stem from gastroenteritis, blockage, pancreatitis, parasites, hairballs, or panleukopenia; find the cause first. Hair in vomit suggests hairballs: give hairball paste, cat grass, or hairball-control food. If no improvement, suspect gastroenteritis or pancreatitis: fast half a day, then pet antiemetic and anti-inflammatory plus probiotics. If it recurs, suspect parasites or panleukopenia and see a vet.
Why is my cat vomiting pale-red liquid but still energetic?
Vomiting pale-red fluid while lively may come from swallowing a sharp object (fish bones, bone chips) that scratches the gut or mouth, or from oral bleeding. If diarrhea also appears, suspect gastroenteritis or an infection — don't self-medicate, see a vet.
Why is my Bichon vomiting yellow fluid?
Yellow vomit can come from food irritation, diet change, eating foreign objects, or infectious disease. In puppies think diet, gut inflammation, or worms (tapeworms/roundworms). In older dogs also tumors or liver disease — treat the underlying cause.
Why is my dog vomiting and having diarrhea?
Usually acute gastroenteritis from bad diet, bacteria, virus, toxin or worms. See a vet to avoid dehydration; treat with anti-inflammatory, anti-diarrhea and anti-vomit meds plus fluids. Virus needs interferon; parasites need deworming after; toxin needs induced vomiting and lavage.
