My cat keeps being listless, vomiting and having diarrhea, and hides in corners by itself.
Listlessness with vomiting, diarrhea, and hiding may reflect gastroenteritis, infectious disease, or parasites. Spoiled food or swallowed objects can trigger it, as can a lack of deworming. Persistent signs warrant prompt veterinary diagnosis.
Common Causes and Treatments for a Dog Vomiting Yellow Fluid
Owners often ask us: 'My dog vomits yellow fluid in the morning, what do I do?' 'It vomits yellow fluid but seems fine, why?' 'Yellow foamy vomit, what's the cause?' Today our pet care specialists cover the common causes and treatments for dogs vomiting yellow fluid.
Why does my cat vomit yellow-green material?
Yellow-green vomit with low energy and poor appetite may be acute gastroenteritis or infection with distemper or coronavirus. These are serious—get differential diagnosis at a vet; if distemper, full treatment. Acute gastroenteritis is treated supportively and usually recovers in 3–5 days. See a vet promptly.
What should I do if my cat vomits white foam?
Foaming can come from gut issues, viral infection, poisoning, or other disease; hairballs, blockage, gastroenteritis, distemper, or poisoning all can cause it—treat by cause. If only foam with normal energy, it is likely gut-related and easier to recover.
Why is my cat having diarrhea and vomiting white foam?
Diarrhea and white-foam vomit may be from bacterial gastroenteritis, feline panleukopenia (distemper), or poisoning. Since symptoms persist for days, see a vet promptly. If vaccinated, panleukopenia can be ruled out. Pancreatitis or kidney failure may also cause this. Don't self-medicate; get professional diagnosis.
It hasn’t eaten for three days and won’t even take force-feeding; I thought it was gastroenteritis and gave medicine but it vomited it up. On the fourth day the hospital confirmed feline panleukopenia (distemper), and it’s had IV fluids for four days. White blood cells went 4.7 to 3.8 to 5.1 to 7.9, FPV-AG now 38.18 ug/ml. It can eat now and energy is better — does it still need treatment, or can we stop and let it recover slowly?
Feline panleukopenia is usually dangerous, with a course of about 7–10 days; active treatment and monitoring are advised, and stopping medication should follow the vet's instructions — never stop on your own. Continue until energy, appetite, and stool are normal, then recheck WBC, SAA, and antigen; after they return to normal ranges, some antivirals and fluids can be tapered, but gut repair needs longer care.
My cat slept, refused food/water, vomited twice (first a roundworm), vet gave half a dewormer pill, but still sleepy, weak, barely eating-is this normal, what should I do?
These signs may be parasite infection, another disease, or dewormer side effects. If no improvement after the vet visit, contact the clinic and describe symptoms; further tests (blood, fecal, distemper) may be needed and the plan adjusted. Keep warm/quiet; try easily digestible warm food carefully.
My cat vomited white mucus this morning, ate a little food and probiotics, and the stool is unclear but was normal before vomiting
White mucus vomiting has many causes: poor digestion, food change, hunger, hairballs, foreign objects, bacterial or viral gastroenteritis. If alert and only vomiting once or twice, fast for a day then feed bland liquid food with probiotics; see a vet if it worsens with lethargy, diarrhea, or fever.
How Long Does It Usually Take to Cure Distemper?
Distemper generally requires about 15-30 days of treatment, with the exact recovery time varying by severity and the dog's physical condition. Until fully cured, continue the prescribed medication and do not stop arbitrarily, or the illness may relapse and reduce the chance of recovery.
How long does it take to cure distemper?
Distemper treatment takes about 15 to 30 days, varying with constitution, severity, and effect; some keep lifelong twitching. Do not stop medication midway to avoid relapse, and strengthen care and environmental disinfection during treatment.
