39-Day Kitten Diarrhea and Vomiting, Now Weak and Twitching
Frequent diarrhea/vomit may be intolerance, parasites or gastroenteritis; get fecal and ultrasound tests. Many kittens are lactose intolerant—use goat milk. Twitching suggests low blood sugar; act fast.
Kitten was fine when first brought home, but started vomiting the next day with clear fluid and white foam, refusing food, listless for three days, vomiting 2 to 3 times daily, sometimes yellow; never ate, threw up a few kibbles, ate some cat strips and hairball paste, water never cut off. Gave amoxicillin on day three, still vomiting, ate some chicken breast, vomited green fluid at night, then started having diarrhea.
Based on your description, vomiting, lethargy, loss of appetite, and diarrhea are most likely caused by enteritis or feline panleukopenia (distemper) virus infection. Because symptoms appeared shortly after bringing the kitten home, it may be a so-called week-old kitten from an unreliable source.
I found a kitten about seven weeks old. I’ve fed it ‘wowo’ brand cat food for three weeks, but since last night it has been retching and vomiting undigested kibble and some liquid, about 8-9 times; tonight it has no appetite and won’t drink, but is still playful, looks pale, and sometimes growls.
There are many reasons a kitten may vomit - it may be gastrointestinal symptoms from improper feeding or indigestible food, and if it hasn't been vaccinated or dewormed, parasitic or viral infection cannot be ruled out. Generally, if the kitten is in good spirits, you can first withhold food and water for observation, and during this period give it some pet probiotics and an acid-suppressing antiemetic such as Puoxidin or probiotics. But if the vomiting does not improve or tends to worsen, it is recommended to take the kitten to a veterinary hospital promptly for examination and treatment.
My two-and-a-half-month-old kitten started vomiting frequently and is now lethargic
Frequent vomiting usually signals stomach upset from digestive disease; a young kitten vomiting with low spirits may have a serious illness. If it stays lively after vomiting you can try fasting and water restriction with probiotics, anti-inflammatories and anti-emetics at home; otherwise see a vet to find the cause. Causes include blockage, hairballs, parasites, indigestion and feline panleukopenia.
My kitten vomited yellow fluid for 3 days, spirits worsening, no diarrhea; I fed a little cat treat two days before the vomiting started
Yellow vomiting without diarrhea in a kitten suggests gastritis or gastric ulcer, often with poor appetite; get a stomach check. A gut foreign object trying to come up can also cause it, needing an X-ray. Seek care soon to avoid worsening.
A kitten started with a swollen belly, then hind-leg weakness and unsteady standing, and later vomiting and diarrhea—what is happening?
From your description—swollen belly, hind-leg weakness, unsteady standing, then vomiting and diarrhea—this may be a serious disease needing prompt care. Possible causes include ascites, digestive disease, parasitic infection, or organ diseases such as liver, FIP, kidney, or heart problems.
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.
Kitten suddenly vomiting, low spirits, throws up even after eating cat strips—what to do?
Vomiting may come from hairballs, internal parasites, gastroenteritis, pancreatitis or panleukopenia. If otherwise normal with hair in vomit, try hairball paste. If no improvement, withhold food and water half a day, then give pet anti-inflammatory and an anti-vomit drug; after relief feed small frequent bland meals with probiotics. If still poor and unvaccinated, see a vet.
What should I do if my kitten won’t eat, is lethargic and vomiting?
A kitten that won't eat, is lethargic and vomits usually has a gut problem — bacterial or viral enteritis, or intestinal parasites. Take it to a vet to confirm the cause. First, if unvaccinated, test for feline distemper with a strip; distemper mimics gastroenteritis with vomiting, diarrhea, lethargy, appetite loss, fever and can be fatal in ~10 days without treatment. If no distemper, it's usually gastroenteritis or parasites — treat the symptom and use probiotics.
