My Cat Had Diarrhea Last Night and This Morning, and Vomited This Morning—What’s Wrong?
Causes include indigestion, parasites, gastroenteritis, or infection. From the photo it vomited undigested food (likely indigestion)—try fasting plus probiotics; if it continues, see a vet.
My cat vomited three times: first undigested kibble and meat, second undigested kibble with white foam and pale-yellow water, third pale-yellow water with white foam. One bout of diarrhea, ears very hot but nose wet and cool. It happened before and I ignored it thinking overeating; this time is a bit worse.
Vomiting, diarrhea, and hot ears suggest acute gastroenteritis from hairballs, food intolerance, or indigestion; infection is possible. See a vet for diagnosis; if unavailable, give pet anti-inflammatory and anti-emetic, then softened kibble in small amounts.
While cleaning its ears the night before last I gave some cat food; next morning it vomited food, so I fed less then withheld food and water. Later it vomited white foam; I gave omeprazole capsules and glucose. Still some vomiting and low energy, but this morning it played and seemed not too bad. It kicks when I pet its belly but just won’t eat, only drinks a little water.
White foam vomiting and poor appetite can come from indigestion, gastroenteritis, or parasites. After prolonged vomiting, give amoxicillin-clavulanate and probiotics, then easy liquid food; see a vet if no relief.
Cat has diarrhea for days.
Many causes. Food (unsuitable or sudden food change): easy food plus probiotics/kaolin. Parasites (roundworm, coccidia, Giardia, tapeworm): deworm. Acute gastroenteritis, panleukopenia, corona: see a vet.
Cat often shakes head, poor appetite, occasional mild twitch, brooding-hen squat – what?
Head shaking may be ear infection/foreign body; twitching suggests neuro issues like vestibular disorder. Poor appetite/squat may be gastroenteritis, FIP, infection, poisoning. Many signs, need a vet exam.
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.
