My cat has low appetite, sleeps a lot, abdomen moving, noisy breathing – what could it be?
Those signs may mean a respiratory infection, heart disease or FIP. Watch for runny nose, pale mucous membranes or a growing belly, and see a vet to confirm.
My cat keeps going to the litter box but can’t pee or poop; a little soft stool appeared overnight, no appetite, lethargic, and cries loudly when held. I force-fed water and it vomited.
Frequent litter-box trips with little urine suggest urinary blockage, which risks kidney failure. With appetite loss and lethargy this is serious, so see a vet immediately. Delayed treatment can cause major harm.
Cat has no appetite, now twitching and vomiting water, body getting cold
These signs match feline distemper: diarrhea, vomiting, appetite loss, lethargy, fever, bloody stool. The cat is weak and needs fluids urgently. Get to a vet fast; distemper can be cured if treated promptly.
Why does my kitten have a poor appetite and a thin build?
A kitten that eats little and stays thin may simply have a weak digestive system with poor nutrient absorption. Feed easily digestible food and add probiotics. Parasites can also cause poor appetite and thinness, so deworm the kitten promptly, with monthly external and quarterly internal prevention recommended.
My female cat has had a poor appetite and low energy for the past two days, and her tongue and gums look pale with little color — what’s going on?
Pale gums in cats can have many causes. In kittens it may be physiological anemia requiring nutritional supplementation or blood tonics. Blood parasite infections such as babesia can also cause pale gums, along with lethargy, weight loss, diarrhea and fever, requiring prompt deworming and treatment.
My cat has a high fever of 40 C, reduced appetite, looks unwell, and its ears, gums, and eyelids are yellow; urine is yellow and nose is dry
Based on your description, the cat shows high fever, reduced appetite, and yellowing of the ears, gums, eyelids, and urine with a dry nose - symptoms that may indicate hepatitis. Feline acute hepatitis brings lethargy, weight loss, and jaundice. Take the cat to a vet promptly for diagnosis; treatment usually combines antibiotics with aminoglycosides.
Energy and appetite are both fine, just diarrhea.
Diarrhea with normal energy and appetite is often dietary; hard-to-digest food, fast eating, or sudden food change. A short fast and pet probiotics help; internal parasites can also cause it with weight loss. Deworm if parasites are suspected.
My two-month-old puppy sneezes and has clear nasal discharge but normal appetite and energy; is it a cold, what should I do, does it need medicine?
With normal energy and appetite, clear sneezing discharge may indeed be a chill or cold; pet cold and anti-inflammatory medicine plus warmth and nutrition can help. Observe 3-5 days, and if it worsens or fever appears, rule out distemper or kennel cough at the vet.
My dog has been lethargic and has no appetite for the past two weeks, vomits white foam, and anti-vomiting medicine didn’t help; I also found a hard lump on one nipple and two or three small hard lumps next to another nipple.
Vomiting foam and loss of appetite can signal serious illness such as gastroenteritis, pancreatitis, or viral infection, not just a minor upset. Combined with nipple lumps, mammary tumor or breast cancer cannot be ruled out and needs veterinary assessment. Do not medicate at home; seek professional diagnosis and treatment.

Why Does My Rabbit Have Cold Ears and No Appetite?
Cold ears in a rabbit usually mean its body temperature has dropped and it feels chilly — warm it up with a blanket and keep its environment at 18–24°C. If the ears are cold together with loss of appetite, an illness such as rabbit hemorrhagic disease, a cold or a serious condition may be lowering its temperature; watch for lethargy, sneezing, discharge or diarrhea and see a vet promptly.
