A newly arrived Ragdoll kitten started having diarrhea in the afternoon after eating chicken breast the day before yesterday, became listless, refused dry food, and began vomiting yellow frothy fluid this morning
Diarrhea after a cat eats chicken breast may be due to the chicken being spoiled or undercooked, or to a sensitive stomach that reacted to the food. In this case, withhold food for half a day to a day and give some pet probiotics and medication to repair the digestive tract lining, then watch whether symptoms improve. If the symptoms worsen, take the cat to a vet promptly.

My kitten switched food abruptly with no transition, ate a lot, then had diarrhea; I bathed it, and next day it was lethargic, dry-nosed, and refusing food, now vomiting but stools normal.
Food changes must be gradual; a sudden large amount causes gut upset with diarrhea and vomiting. This is likely stress from the switch plus the bath. Stop the new food, return to soaked old food, add probiotics. If vomiting continues, fast 6 to 8 hours with glucose electrolyte water, then pet anti-vomit medicine and antibiotics; if it stops, slowly return to soaked food; if it continues, see a vet.

Why is my kitten’s belly large
If a kitten only has a big belly with no other symptoms, it is mainly from overeating or indigestion; organs are immature and overfeeding bloats it. Control portions. If indigestion, fast and give probiotics.
My rescued kitten ate cat food and sweet potato, then vomited and won’t eat; now vomiting yellow fluid
The vomiting is likely from improper diet; kittens should not eat sweet potato, which irritates the gut. Give appropriate probiotics to aid digestion.
My 3-month-old kitten just came home; its belly is large and hard, it has not eaten, drunk or used the litter for hours, and it dry-retches with low energy – why?
A hard, swollen belly with dry retching may indicate indigestion or a gastrointestinal blockage from constipation, a foreign object or parasites. Offer warm water with probiotics and a quiet space, and see a vet if it does not improve.
