My cat passes yellow water and black loose stool – please help.
Yellow or black loose stool relates to gut health; if energy and appetite are normal, viral enteritis is unlikely. Use broad-spectrum antibiotics and probiotics; test for parasites/virus if unvaccinated.
My Cat Has Loose Stools and Has Vomited a Few Times
Loose stools and vomiting yellow fluid can come from indigestion, foreign objects, hairballs, parasites, or viruses. If energy and appetite are good, fast briefly and give probiotics; check the food. If no relief, see a vet.
My cat’s belly is very large but appetite and spirits are normal; stools are a bit loose and hind legs feel weak
A large belly may be pregnancy, ascites, or an abdominal tumor. Gradual enlargement in a female cat suggests pregnancy, while rapid swelling suggests ascites such as FIP. An imaging exam at the vet is recommended.
My cat has yellow, very loose stool – what should I do?
Loose stool can be parasitic enteritis, a virus or indigestion. Try pet anti-diarrheals and probiotics with light food; see a vet if it worsens after 2 days.
My cat is 7-9 months old, had loose stool two days ago, became lethargic and refused food yesterday, vomited twice last night, and was found hiding in the yard this morning — what could be wrong?
Based on your description, the cat's symptoms of loose stool, lethargy, vomiting, and loss of appetite are mainly considered to be caused by gastroenteritis. You can withhold food for half a day and give the cat anti-inflammatory, anti-diarrheal, and gut-regulating medications such as amoxicillin clavulanate, bismuth subcarbonate tablets, and pet probiotics. Once the symptoms ease, feed the cat easily digestible food. If there is no improvement after medication, promptly take the cat to a veterinary hospital for examination and treatment to rule out any underlying disease.
My cat has loose stools; after defecating its rear swells slightly with watery discharge, but it is alert yet has reduced appetite
Loose stools with a swollen rear may stem from gastroenteritis, parasites or food allergy; have a vet diagnose the cause. If a visit is hard, clean the area with saline-soaked gauze. For ongoing diarrhea, give pet anti-diarrheal and anti-inflammatory medication, and apply ointment to the swollen anus avoiding licking.
My cat has had gastroenteritis for days with fluids and injections, but today vomited green liquid and had bloody loose stool. What should I do?
Feline gastroenteritis varies; bacterial cases need fasting, anti-inflammatory, anti-diarrhea, and probiotic support, while viral or hemorrhagic cases need further testing for panleukopenia and imaging. Other diseases like pancreatitis can mimic it.
My cat had loose stools after eating thawed canned food and is now lethargic with no appetite
Sudden canned-food change can cause gastroenteritis; fast briefly, use probiotics and anti-diarrhea meds, and see a vet if it worsens.
Why Is My Cat Having Diarrhea Again?
Diarrhea is loose or unformed stool from food moving too fast through the gut to absorb water and nutrients, and it can be acute or chronic. Causes range from infections, parasites, and diet changes to stress and underlying gut disease; at home, keep water available, feed small frequent easily digested meals, and use smectite or pet probiotics for mild cases — but see a vet for blood, fever, lethargy, or ongoing diarrhea in an unvaccinated cat.
Can Cat Constipation Heal on Its Own, and What Should You Do?
A cat that has not defecated for over three days is constipated and will not get better on its own — see a vet early. Common fixes are dietary adjustment, more exercise, and probiotic gut support; a glycerin suppository can help but should not be overused.
