A four-month-old cat suddenly lost appetite and vomits yellow fluid, nine times in two days; ate a pesticide earlier and half an amoxicillin capsule. The pet hospital is closed, the cat’s nose and paw pads are pale. What do I do? Urgent!
Yellow vomit suggests gastroenteritis from diet or, if unvaccinated, possible obstruction or panleukopenia; tests include blood work, SAA, ultrasound, and a panleukopenia test. Pale nose and paws mean anemia and dehydration needing fluids; at home give glucose and anti-emetics.
Cat had reduced appetite for two days, refused food and water on the third, started vomiting the day before yesterday, threw up roundworms yesterday, then yellow fluid at night; gave dewormer today but no improvement.
Vomiting roundworms means heavy parasites have damaged the gut and cause yellow vomiting; after deworming, support the gut. Fast, give fluids if possible, and use anti-emetic and probiotic care.
Recently vomited, did not finish the cat food, vomits white and yellow foam, blood in urine, and urinates more. What is wrong?

A two- to three-month-old puppy vomited white mucus, head drooping, mouth clamped shut, whimpering, hard tense abdomen; critical. Recently ate lots of meat. Is it gastroenteritis? In the countryside with only human medicines. Now whimpering again, very weak. What do I do?
Vomiting and lethargy in an unvaccinated puppy raise concern for distemper, coronavirus, or parvovirus, or acute gastroenteritis from rich food, or a bone causing an intestinal foreign body. Seek a vet for screening; if impossible, fast and give glucose, anti-emetics, and antibiotics.
It got a bit cold; the dog barks at night and in the morning is weak in the limbs and cannot stand.

What Happens If a Hamster Eats Lemon?
Hamsters rarely eat lemons because the strong scent is unpleasant to their sensitive noses. Eating lemon can cause diarrhea and dehydration since the acidity irritates their delicate stomachs. Avoid feeding highly acidic or watery fruits in large amounts.
What Happens if a Puppy Drinks Cow’s Milk?
Puppies often lack lactase and cow's milk's high lactose can cause severe vomiting and diarrhea, even fatal dehydration. Use puppy formula milk instead, and if diarrhea occurs, stop milk and see a vet.

Difficulty swallowing can be local or systemic - nerve disease, myasthenia, trauma, inflammation, or a mass. See a vet at once; long-term cases cause weight loss and dehydration.
