My dog keeps coughing, cannot close its mouth, has foam around the mouth, a slight fever, poor appetite, and trouble opening its left eye — what illness is this?
Based on your description, the persistent cough is likely a respiratory disease or distemper virus, and the foaming at the mouth also suggests a digestive issue or food poisoning. If unvaccinated, distemper is more likely and needs a vet test and treatment.
My puppy is foaming at the mouth and its belly is very bloated
Foaming and a bloated belly may come from poisoning, internal parasites, gut blockage, or a viral infection - all serious. Take the puppy to a vet promptly; X-rays and abdominal ultrasound may be needed to find the cause. If gastric torsion, intussusception, or acute gastric dilation is present, surgery may be required.
My cat is having convulsions, rolling its eyes back, breathing rapidly with its mouth open — what should I do?
The above symptoms usually point to a serious health problem requiring immediate first aid and a trip to the vet to find the cause. Convulsions with eye-rolling suggest poisoning or epilepsy; rapid open-mouth breathing indicates severe oxygen deprivation.
My Hamster Trembles and Walks Abnormally After I Applied Cat Dewormer – What Happened?
Trembling after cat dewormer on a hamster is likely drug poisoning; some hamsters are allergic. Cat topical dewormers have hard-to-control ingredients and doses for hamsters, and overdose can be absorbed through skin. This is urgent - see a vet.
Several of my dogs are vomiting white foam/mucus and two are lethargic; the local vet’s medicine isn’t working – what’s wrong?
Several dogs vomiting mucus and being lethargic likely points to a viral infection or poisoning. The prescribed medicine targets parvovirus; if an antigen test confirms parvovirus, oral medicine alone usually fails - there is no specific cure, and treatment is fluids, anti-inflammation, antivirals, and gut repair with interferon and monoclonal antibodies. Isolate the dogs to avoid cross-infection.
My cat started vomiting white foam last night and is weak all over; sometimes it cannot bring anything up. What is wrong?
Vomiting white foam with limb weakness in a cat is considered likely caused by poisoning and requires urgent veterinary care. Many causes exist, but foamy vomiting with whole-body weakness should first rule out toxic poisoning.
Cat vomits yellow fluid, white foam at mouth, won’t eat or drink, no energy
Yellow vomit, no eating/drinking, and low spirits can come from many serious diseases: gut dysfunction, infectious disease, liver disease, pancreatitis, or hairball-caused acute gastroenteritis; white foam does not rule out poisoning. First do infectious-disease and blood screening at the vet; frequent vomiting causes dehydration, so IV fluids may be needed. If no visit, use anti-vomit and antibacterial meds.
Is it dangerous if a cat eats ibuprofen?
Cats must not eat ibuprofen; even one pill can poison them, severely irritating the stomach lining and causing ulcers, bleeding, even perforation. Signs include bloody vomit, vomiting, jaundice, tremors. Overdose can kill within hours. If eaten, rush to the vet for induced vomiting and symptomatic care.
Dog first refused food and vomited clear egg-white-like fluid, then foamed at the mouth, eye discharge, red whites of eyes, no energy
Your description suggests poisoning causing foam and weakness, but many diseases cause foaming vomit, so a vet exam is needed for the exact cause. Recall any toxin or food swallowed; if none, it may be digestive, infectious, or internal disease needing professional exam and questions to diagnose and treat.
What should I do if my dog is poisoned by eating cherries?
Cherries are toxic to dogs; induce vomiting right after eating using hydrogen peroxide or diluted soapy water to limit absorption. If clear poisoning signs appear, go to the vet at once. Small amounts may be fine, but large amounts need gastric lavage and enema.
