My cat had vomiting/diarrhea (white foam) and a fever shot, then vet diagnosed gastroenteritis; now no diarrhea but vomiting thick yellow fluid, not eating, low energy
Have the vet determine if it's bacterial or viral gastroenteritis and follow treatment without stopping meds early. For repeated yellow-fluid vomiting, stop oral food/meds and use IV/subcutaneous fluids, then gut-repair meds, amoxicillin-clavulanate, and probiotics; feed liquid, easily digestible food later.
My Cat Has Vomited for Days, with Hair in the Vomit and Yellow Fluid; Gave Cimetidine and Albendazole. What Is Wrong?
Vomiting in cats has many causes, including poor diet, hairballs, gastroenteritis, pancreatitis, drug irritation or panleukopenia. Fast the cat for a day and use probiotics and cimetidine; if no improvement, see a vet.
My Puppy Was Energetic and Eating Fine at First, Then Started With Diarrhea, Then Vomited Yellow Fluid, Then Stopped Eating and Became Lethargic; the Diarrhea Had a Bit of Red and Today a Long White Thing Came Out
Vomiting, bloody diarrhea, and passing worms suggest an internal parasite infection or parvovirus or coronavirus infection; take the dog to the hospital for fecal and infectious-disease testing without delay. If a visit is not possible and the dog is stable, deworm it and use probiotics and acid-suppressants, feeding only liquid food during recovery.
Why would a cat die after being spayed/neutered and vomiting yellow fluid?
Vomiting yellow fluid after neutering is usually an anesthetic reaction that resolves in 12 to 24 hours. Persistent vomiting may mean an overdose or, tragically, unvaccinated distemper.
Cat not eating for 2 days, vomiting yellow fluid, lethargic, losing weight fast
A cat that stops eating, drinks little, vomits yellow fluid, is lethargic and loses weight rapidly may have internal/external parasites, a digestive disease or liver problems. Its condition is poor, so see a vet promptly for diagnosis and targeted treatment; delayed care risks dehydration or shock.

What to Do If an Anemic Cat Won’t Eat or Drink
A severely anemic cat that refuses food and water needs immediate veterinary care: fluid therapy and, when critical, a blood transfusion, because prolonged starvation leads to dehydration and worsening anemia. Treatment targets the underlying cause, restores blood-building nutrients, and may require iron, vitamin B12, and folate supplementation.

Treatment Methods for Feline Diabetes
Diabetes in cats is very treatable when caught early and managed properly. Treatment centers on insulin injections, fluid therapy for severe cases, prompt care for complications, dietary adjustment, and careful at-home monitoring. With consistent owner effort, most diabetic cats can recover.
My 3-month-old kitten has been home about 5 days; it will not eat or drink, occasionally has diarrhea and vomits, and now cannot stand. What illness is this?
A newly arrived kitten that will not eat or drink and has vomiting and diarrhea is likely suffering from a gastrointestinal disease or feline panleukopenia (distemper). Now being unable to stand suggests dehydration and electrolyte loss from prolonged vomiting and diarrhea, requiring immediate fluid therapy.
How much does it cost to treat feline rhinotracheitis (cat flu)?
The cost of treating cat flu is usually between 300 and 400. Each cat's condition and response differs, so the treatment plan and cost vary individually. More severe cases requiring fluid therapy and force-feeding will cost more.
My Dog Is Trembling, Howling, and Refusing Food
Trembling in a dog infected with distemper suggests the virus may have reached the nervous system, and home treatment is unlikely to work. With no food intake the dog risks dehydration and death, so seek veterinary fluid therapy.
