Cat went into heat, sent to stud, came back less active, eats little, yellow diarrhea – why, what to do?
Cat diarrhea has many causes - parasites, diet, gastroenteritis, pancreatitis, panleukopenia.

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.
