Why does my cat keep squatting like a brooding hen?
Not always illness; analyze with eating, energy, temperature, breathing, pain. FIP causes it with fever, fluid, no appetite; pancreatitis causes abdominal pain; acute gastroenteritis; kidney/stone/blockage also. See a vet if energy/appetite are off.
Diarrhea, vomit flowing from under the mouth, half-dead; what to do
From your description, the hamster likely has acute gastroenteritis or wet tail. Its state is very poor with constant life risk. Try syringe glucose for energy and to prevent dehydration, then take it to the vet at once. If a visit is hard, after it stabilizes give smectite and antibiotics to ease diarrhea.
Cat has been vomiting about once a week, with cough, but spirits are good, eating and drinking normally; had bacterial inflammation before, gave amoxicillin-clavulanate and dewormed
The photo shows hairball clumps in the vomit; frequent vomiting and cough are likely hairball buildup and hairball syndrome causing retching. Give hairball paste, probiotics, and anti-vomit meds, and groom often. If no improvement, see a vet to check for gut blockage or acute gastroenteritis.
Cat vomits yellow fluid, white foam at mouth, won’t eat or drink, no energy
Yellow vomit, no eating/drinking, and low spirits can come from many serious diseases: gut dysfunction, infectious disease, liver disease, pancreatitis, or hairball-caused acute gastroenteritis; white foam does not rule out poisoning. First do infectious-disease and blood screening at the vet; frequent vomiting causes dehydration, so IV fluids may be needed. If no visit, use anti-vomit and antibacterial meds.
Cat has had diarrhea all day and won’t eat
Diarrhea has many causes; find the cause before treating. Parasite infection needs a fecal test and targeted dewormer. If after diarrhea the cat is listless, loses appetite, vomits, or has abnormal temperature, consider acute gastroenteritis or panleukopenia; take it to the vet for exam, diagnosis, and treatment.
Vomits white foam and brown unknown substance
White foam vomit has many causes including acute gastroenteritis, blockage, bad diet, and panleukopenia. Severe cases need a vet to avoid dehydration death; the young, unwell cat in the photo needs virus caution.
Kitten ate strawberry-flavored smectite, then threw up thick yellow fluid with food after eating meat
Based on your description, the vomiting and diarrhea may be from indigestion or acute gastroenteritis, but feline panleukopenia cannot be ruled out. Prompt fasting and a veterinary visit are advised.
My dog keeps vomiting yellow water with blood and won’t eat anything
Persistent vomiting of yellow water with blood is mainly considered from intestinal foreign bodies, acute gastroenteritis, parasites, or viral infection — all damage the gut and cause bleeding. If spirits and appetite are good and stools normal, try gut-regulating medicine. If no relief or the dog is weak, get a detailed vet exam.
My cat ate a lot of kibble in the day, plus treat paste, freeze-dried food, and goat-milk powder, then vomited twice in the evening with food bits — is vomiting twice normal? Second photo is the second vomit.
A cat vomiting twice with food residue after overeating is usually a sign of indigestion; it is best to stop feeding and give some pet-specific probiotics to regulate the gut. If there is no further vomiting afterward, it is normal and you don't need to worry too much. However, if the cat keeps vomiting, it may have triggered acute gastroenteritis and needs prompt veterinary care. A kitten's digestive system is not yet fully developed and its digestive capacity is limited, so control the feeding amount normally and avoid too many types of food at once to reduce the digestive burden.
