Why Does Your Cat Leak Urine?
Why does a cat leak urine? There are many causes, and a cat's urinary tract is complex, so in most cases a vet visit is needed to check. If you cannot get to a clinic right away, you can try the causes below from our experts.
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.
My Cat Vomited Three Times After Eating Fish, Throwing Up the Meat With Yellow Fluid, Then Refused Food and Water and Slept Lethargically
Not eating/drinking and vomiting have many causes, usually digestive disease. After eating fish, possible improper diet or indigestion causing acute enteritis. Poor gut, spoiled/raw/salty food can cause vomiting. Overfeeding or discomfort also. Give probiotics and an antiemetic. If worsening, vet urgently - long fasting needs IV fluids; rule out panleukopenia.
Why Is My Cat Refusing Food, Losing Weight, and Having Seizures?
Per description, anorexia, diarrhea, lethargy, weight loss, mild seizures may be gastroenteritis or infectious disease (panleukopenia, coronavirus). Unvaccinated cats are at higher risk. Severe - see vet promptly to find cause and treat, preventing death.
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.
My foundling orange kitten had normal stool first day on kibble, then diarrhea; only fed kibble and lactose-free milk, gave smecta and probiotics, improved, then relapsed after stopping smecta; no fever/vomit, eats/sleeps well but diarrhea; today a bit of blood.
Give pet probiotics for diarrhea; avoid dairy (even lactose-free). If no improvement plus blood, likely parasite-induced enteritis—get a fecal test first to identify the parasite, then choose dewormer (giardia/coccidia need specific drugs, common dewormers don't work; both cause persistent bloody diarrhea; also roundworm/tapeworm). Severe bleeding: oral anti-inflammatory. If blood/diarrhea with low appetite/fever/lethargy, check for panleukopenia.
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.
My cat’s stool was like mud, then diarrhea with mucus and blood—what disease is this?
Mud-like stool with mucus and blood likely means enteritis or parasite infection. First, bacterial or viral enteritis—if unvaccinated, panleukopenia risk is high, so get a test and blood work. Second, coccidia or Giardia damage the gut lining and cause bleeding; diagnose by fecal exam and abdominal ultrasound, then deworm and treat with anti-inflammatories.
A Young Cat Has Had Diarrhea for Over Two Days, Now the Lower Belly Is Flat and Soft, the Hind Legs Barely Move, the Limbs Are Weak, It Keeps Sleeping and Eats Nothing
Based on your description, repeated diarrhea, refusal to eat or drink, and limb weakness over two days are signs of dehydration from disease. Repeated diarrhea and prolonged fasting cause electrolyte loss and imbalance, and without prompt care the condition can be fatal.
Nebelung
The Nebelung is essentially a long-haired Russian Blue, a rare variant recognized by TICA in 1987 and hailed as the 'nobility of long-haired breeds.' Apart from its coat, it is identical to the Russian Blue. Quiet, shy, and gentle, yet intelligent and adaptable, it is well suited to calm households.
