My dog keeps vomiting and has diarrhea; it seemed better two days ago with formed stool, then suddenly started having diarrhea and vomiting again

My cat eats boiled chicken, carrot, gizzards and kibble, and suddenly vomited today

My puppy hasn’t eaten for three days, only vomits, and today it only drinks water and throws it up right after.
Vomiting right after drinking suggests gut disease or pancreatitis. After 3 days with no food the dog is weak, so take it for IV fluids and energy plus diagnosis. Delay risks hypoglycemia, dehydration, shock, death.
My cat won’t gain weight and its long fur is a bit thin.
Failing to gain weight with thin fur suggests poor nutritionโoften low-quality food, parasites, poor absorption, or endocrine disease. Have a vet check for gut parasites and digestive/endocrine issues, then switch to higher-protein food and add goat milk, boiled chicken, beef. Add fish oil, lecithin, vitamin B for coat and skin immunity.
What happens if a dog eats apricots?
A small amount of apricot usually causes no serious reaction, but apricots are sour and hard to digest, and overeating can irritate the gut and cause diarrhea or vomiting. Apricot kernels contain small amounts of cyanide and can poison a dog, with symptoms from vomiting to shock. Remove the pit and avoid feeding many.
