My cat had vomiting/diarrhea (white foam) and a fever shot, then vet diagnosed gastroenteritis; now no diarrhea but vomiting thick yellow fluid, not eating, low energy
Have the vet determine if it's bacterial or viral gastroenteritis and follow treatment without stopping meds early. For repeated yellow-fluid vomiting, stop oral food/meds and use IV/subcutaneous fluids, then gut-repair meds, amoxicillin-clavulanate, and probiotics; feed liquid, easily digestible food later.
What Medicine for a Cat That Drools a Lot?
Don't medicate a drooling cat blindly — find the cause first. Oral foreign bodies (bone, fish bone) need removal then antiseptic spray; stomatitis needs mouth spray, anti-inflammatories, dental cleaning or extraction; pharyngitis needs vet amoxicillin and soft food, or IV fluids if it won't drink. Rinse the mouth if a strong-tasting substance caused it.
What to Do When a Turtle Has a Cold
A sick turtle shows poor appetite, bubbles from sneezing in water, weeping eyes and nose, pawing at face, wheezing or hard breathing, and lethargy — and a cold often turns into pneumonia, which can kill. Early: isolate, warm rest, add vitamins/electrolytes to warm water (recovers in ~a week). Mid: soak in cold medicine or oxytetracycline ~30 min. Severe: syringe amoxicillin 3x/week at 38-40°C; see a vet if no improvement.
Can Turtle Pneumonia Heal on Its Own?
Turtles are easier to keep than many pets but still get sick, and pneumonia is common and usually will not heal by itself. Timely treatment is needed. Here is what to know about turtle pneumonia.
I bathed the kitten at home once, then noticed yellow nasal discharge and bad breath. Is this a cold or feline rhinotracheitis?
Rhinotracheitis causes sneezing, runny nose, lethargy, fever, poor appetite, red eyes, and sometimes mouth ulcers, with clear then yellow-green discharge. If only runny nose with normal spirit and appetite, it's likely a bacterial infection from chill. Try pet cold and anti-inflammatory medicine.
Spirits are fine, just watery stool. What medicine is good?
Watery stool may be food allergy, parasites, or acute enteritis. If a visit isn't possible, try pet anti-inflammatory and anti-diarrhea medicine plus probiotics; stop new foods and keep deworming.
Cat has increased eye discharge for many days and a warm nose at night
Dark eye discharge with a warm nose may be calicivirus, herpesvirus, or mycoplasma. If the cat is otherwise normal, try anti-inflammatory medicine plus daily cleaning and antibiotic eye drops; if appetite or spirit drops, see a vet.
What medicine is good for a dog’s urinary tract infection?
For a urinary tract infection, use anti-inflammatory and anti-infective drugs such as enrofloxacin and amoxicillin, ideally after a vet confirms the diagnosis. Simple infections often improve within two days of medication.
My West African side-neck turtle has been listless for two weeks, inactive and sleepy, and today it can’t even open its eyes. I first thought it was shedding, but it’s still lethargic with poor appetite, looking near death. What’s the cause and solution? I have a biology degree, so if there’s a medication plan you can give it directly — I can understand and compound it.
From your description — lethargy, poor appetite, eyes that won't open — and the photo showing white eye discharge and white rotten flesh on the forelimb, this is likely shell rot or white-eye disease. Take it to a hospital, or dry-dock it and bathe 1 hour daily in amoxicillin; apply erythromycin ointment to the eyes 3x daily. Severe infection may need intramuscular antibiotics, with careful dosing.
