Bought a 2-month kitten; previous owner fed only treats. Last night it cried/hid from the new place; gave Ocean Star kibble soaked, it won’t eat. What to do?
Not eating right after arrival is normal (env/food change), likely for 2-3 days. Long fasting risks low sugar/dehydration/gut harm. Mix its old treats with the new kibble, then gradually cut treats and switch to kibble.
On the 4th I fed half a tiny fish; yesterday no food and vomiting since morning
Vomiting white foam after fish may be indigestion or food intolerance causing gastritis or pancreatitis, or if unvaccinated, distemper or coronavirus. Long fasting and vomiting risk dehydration and low blood sugar, so see a vet. For simple gastroenteritis, use pet anti-inflammatory, anti-emetic, and gut protectors with probiotics.
What to Do When a Rabbit Has Food Stasis
Rabbit food stasis shows as poor appetite, lethargy, and smaller or absent feces (sometimes with hairballs). Treat with a short fast plus unlimited timothy hay, gut-motility aids such as liquid paraffin, and gentle clockwise belly massage — never try to crush abdominal lumps, which can rupture the gut.
Vomited three times between 7 and 11 a.m.; the first two were undigested kibble, the third was white like saliva; nothing eaten from 7 to 12, and one loose stool.
Vomiting white foam with undigested kibble suggests indigestion. Fast for half a day, give anti-vomit medicine and probiotics, then feed easily digestible food; if no relief, see a vet.
Why does my 2-month-old puppy have jelly-like soft stool?
Jelly-like stool indicates damaged, bleeding intestinal lining, possibly from indigestion, acute gastroenteritis, parasites, or viruses. See a vet for diagnosis; mild cases may need fasting and probiotics.
My four-month-old kitten threw up yellow-green foamy fluid all day yesterday, has been lethargic and refusing food/water all day, with bad breath; before that it may have drunk spoiled milk (not sure) – is it just an upset stomach? I gave a little probiotics and omeprazole; should I go to the hospital?
Yellow-green foamy vomit may come from spoiled food, parasites, prolonged fasting, infectious disease, pancreatitis, hepatitis, or kidney damage. If vomiting is not frequent, withhold food and give glucose water and probiotics; spoiled milk may cause gastroenteritis, so pet anti-inflammatory helps, then feed soaked kibble in small amounts once it stops. If vomiting is frequent or with fever, arched back, pain, or lethargy, see a vet for the cause.
My kitten vomited several times, then stayed listless and very weak, with a changed cry. It lies down, no energy, and when it cries it goes ‘uh-uh’ and licks its mouth once.
Vomiting with weakness can be indigestion, gastroenteritis, obstruction, pancreatitis, or distemper. Try fasting, probiotics, and water to prevent dehydration; if no relief, see a vet. Unvaccinated cats are more likely infected, so treat promptly.

How do I relieve my dog’s vomiting?
Many causes (acute gastroenteritis, blockage, spasm, virus)—get a vet check for targeted meds. If can't, fast 6–8h with small warm water to avoid dehydration. If no more vomiting, give pet anti-inflammatory + antiemetic, then after 1–2h probiotics. Then small frequent bland liquid food; observe 1–2 days; if continues, see a vet.
My dog keeps vomiting and has no energy—what should I do?
Persistent vomiting and lethargy may be acute gastroenteritis, pancreatitis, intestinal obstruction, poisoning, hepatitis, or viral disease—see a vet promptly. Before visiting, withhold food to avoid worsening; to prevent dehydration/acid-base imbalance, give sugar-salt water after fasting. If no toxin and no further vomiting, try small-dose pet anti-inflammatory and antiemetic, observe, then feed liquid food.
