After medication the cat still won’t eat or drink; two days on amoxicillin and omeprazole, then vomited yellow fluid once
Vomiting hairballs and yellow fluid is typical of hairball syndrome; try hairball paste to lubricate the gut and pass the ball. Also give an anti-emetic like cimetidine to aid repair and curb acid and vomiting. If no relief or low spirits, fever, etc., see a vet to rule out other causes.
Can a hamster take amoxicillin?
Some hamsters are allergic to amoxicillin and must not take it; others can take it when necessary, but only under a vet's guidance to avoid overdose. Choose medication based on the condition and avoid blind dosing.
Kitten was fine when first brought home, but started vomiting the next day with clear fluid and white foam, refusing food, listless for three days, vomiting 2 to 3 times daily, sometimes yellow; never ate, threw up a few kibbles, ate some cat strips and hairball paste, water never cut off. Gave amoxicillin on day three, still vomiting, ate some chicken breast, vomited green fluid at night, then started having diarrhea.
Based on your description, vomiting, lethargy, loss of appetite, and diarrhea are most likely caused by enteritis or feline panleukopenia (distemper) virus infection. Because symptoms appeared shortly after bringing the kitten home, it may be a so-called week-old kitten from an unreliable source.
My two-month-old neutered Teddy ate rehydrated duck freeze-dry at 8pm, coughed, I gave a little amoxicillin; at midnight more cough, more amoxicillin and duck, then refused food; now sudden violent cough and green loose stool—what is wrong?
Cough suggests upper respiratory infection from chill, bacteria, or virus; green loose stool means gut trouble, possibly virus or parasites. With multiple signs, see a vet at once. If not, symptomatic care with an anti-inflammatory cough herbal tablet and doxycycline, probiotics, then deworm; if no improvement, it is serious.
My cat drooled; I noticed red gums, tongue ulcers, a lump-like thing at the back of the mouth; gave amoxicillin and B2 a few days, ulcers/gum redness faded but still eats little, refuses kibble; tonight after meds and a walk it vomited yellow fluid. Still won’t eat much—only cat strips and paste packets.
Per description/image: stomatitis—tongue tip ulcer, red gums/mucosa, drooling, low appetite. Causes bacterial or viral; screen for calicivirus, FIV first, then targeted meds. If ordinary bacterial, daily anti-inflammatory + antibacterial spray, feed soft/wet food to reduce irritation, supplement B vitamins. If no improvement, consider viral—add antivirals/interferon. Recurrent stomatitis often needs full-mouth extraction.
My turtle has pneumonia and is vomiting blood; I gave some amoxicillin and soaked it in amoxicillin water for half an hour, but it vomited blood again tonight—what now? Very urgent!
Pneumonia with blood vomiting likely means internal injury, GI ulcer, and acute pneumonia; take it to an exotic-animal vet. If unavailable, for suspected acute pneumonia, add cephalosporin or amoxicillin to water for a medicated bath, and give hemostatic medication if vomiting is frequent. This is critical—seek a capable hospital.
What is the dilution ratio for using amoxicillin solution to disinfect a turtle?
Amoxicillin is an antibiotic, not a disinfectant, so there is no fixed disinfecting ratio; the right dose depends on the product strength and the turtle's weight. For treating infection, it is given by mouth or by soaking: about 12 to 25 mg of 10 percent amoxicillin per 500 g of body weight by mouth, or 1 g per 1000 ml of water for soaking, once daily.
Will a turtle die from drinking a small amount of amoxicillin solution?
With a reasonable medicinal bath dose, a turtle that drinks a little of the diluted amoxicillin water is usually fine, since amoxicillin itself is not harmful to turtles; only overdoses that the turtle cannot metabolize build up in the liver and kidneys and become toxic. However, some turtles allergic to penicillin can die, so keep observing.
My cat’s urine was pink at first, then it barely ate and had no stool; after amoxicillin the pink stopped but it keeps straining with only a little yellow urine, hides under the table, sleeps deeply, and vomited up what I fed—what is going on?
From your description the cat likely has a urinary tract disease. Straining with only a little urine, vomiting, frequent litter-box squatting, dribbling, and a full bladder suggest a blockage causing blood in urine and urinary retention. Long retention leads to toxin buildup and acute kidney failure with vomiting—usually male cats from cystitis, crystals, or bacteria. Rush to a vet for catheterization.
Will an 8-jin cat be poisoned by 0.5 g of human amoxicillin?
Human amoxicillin can be safe in controlled doses but 0.5 g for an 8-jin cat is high; watch for toxicity signs and see a vet if worried.
