Kitten won’t eat or drink, vomiting, bloody diarrhea, negative for panleukopenia, no improvement after 4 days of gastroenteritis meds, listless
Symptoms may stem from infection, gastroenteritis, parasites, or diet. Lack of improvement suggests wrong medication. Get blood and imaging tests at a vet.
Two-month-old kitten with blood in stool, suspected cat litter ingestion, prolapse from diarrhea, vomiting; corona virus weakly positive at the clinic, diagnosed with gastroenteritis
Blood in the stool and vomiting in a young kitten call for ruling out panleukopenia and parasites. With weak corona positivity it may be corona virus enteritis or a foreign-body issue; follow the vet's plan.
Why Does a Kitten Keep Having Diarrhea?
Many causes - usually food or parasites - but constant diarrhea with poor appetite risks dehydration, so treat promptly. Here are the causes and fixes.
Kitten passes white sticky substance; was pale yellow then white – cause? What medicine? Urgent!
White sticky stool may be shed intestinal mucosa from enteritis (parasites, virus like panleukopenia/corona, acute bacterial gastroenteritis). Find cause; if can't visit, fast half a day, give pet anti-inflammatory and probiotics; if no improvement, see a vet.
Kitten under a week home, won’t eat, very active; came back to no food/drink and white foam vomit; fed a cat treat, vomited again
White foam vomiting has many causes; the photo shows pink-tinged foam, suggesting stomach injury or bleeding, perhaps from poor eating and indigestion or gastroenteritis. If newly home under a week and unvaccinated, test for feline panleukopenia to avoid missing a virus. For 1-2 vomits with fair spirits, give probiotics and anti-vomit/anti-inflammatory meds, fast briefly, and see a vet if no improvement.
Kitten ate strawberry-flavored smectite, then threw up thick yellow fluid with food after eating meat
Based on your description, the vomiting and diarrhea may be from indigestion or acute gastroenteritis, but feline panleukopenia cannot be ruled out. Prompt fasting and a veterinary visit are advised.
A kitten is low-energy, spitting up milk, and having seizures
Low energy, vomiting, and seizures in a kitten are often gastroenteritis, panleukopenia, or epilepsy. For ongoing or weak signs, get a full check (blood, SAA, panleukopenia test, ultrasound/X-ray) at a vet; if energy is okay, withhold food/water half a day and see a vet if no relief.
A 20-day-old kitten sleeps all day and vomited worms two hours after goat-milk formula
Worms in the vomit mean a serious parasite infection—roundworms, tapeworms, coccidia, hookworms. Have a vet identify the type; 20-day kittens have no suitable dewormer, so treat the gastritis and wait until 50 days to deworm.
Two-month-old kitten has diarrhea and poor appetite; after Milbemax today it became sleepy with white sticky discharge
Diarrhea and poor appetite in a kitten can stem from indigestion, gastroenteritis, foreign objects, or food intolerance. A two-month-old's gut is fragile, so feed easily digestible food, fast half a day, and use probiotics; if it persists, see a vet.
Kitten threw up clear fluid, then only drinks water and won’t eat, now trembling, tongue out, weak limbs, can’t stand – what’s wrong?
Weakness and shaking after not eating is usually low blood sugar - try glucose or honey water and keep warm. If vomiting continues after eating, see a vet; vomiting plus no food can be life-threatening.
