Blood in urine, loss of appetite, only drinking water
A cat with blood in the urine that won't eat and only drinks water usually signals a serious health problem and needs immediate veterinary care. Blood in the urine can be caused by many issues such as a urinary tract infection, stones, kidney disease, liver disease, or food poisoning, and the specific cause should be confirmed through urinalysis, blood tests, imaging, and urethrography before targeted treatment is given. During treatment, nutritional support through a feeding tube or intravenous fluids may be needed to meet the cat's basic physiological needs.
What happens if a rabbit eats random things?
A rabbit's gut is delicate; oily or spicy foods cause indigestion, blockage, or inflammation. Random eating unbalances nutrition, and toxic plants or human drugs cause poisoning (vomiting, diarrhea, nerve damage). Contaminated food spreads parasites like coccidia.
What happens if a dog eats expired food?

What happens if a dog swallows a spring?
A swallowed spring is hard to pass and may lodge in the esophagus or gut, causing blockage with swallowing trouble, vomiting, drooling, and bloating. It can also scratch the tract and cause bleeding or perforation, and metal coatings may poison. Have it removed by scope or surgery if not passed in 3 days.
What happens if a dog eats iron powder?
A small amount is usually neutralized by stomach acid with little harm, but larger amounts burden the gut, causing constipation, pain, and vomiting, and may damage the liver. Heavy intake can cause iron poisoning - vomiting, diarrhea, anemia, liver injury, and nerve signs. See a vet if symptoms appear.
Cat was listless, then walked oddly with hind legs splayed inward, swinging a leg; after sleeping, limbs went limp and it could not move or walk, then had a sudden seizure
Stiff limbs and seizures in a cat can stem from nerve twitching, low blood sugar, poisoning, head injury, epilepsy, meningitis, low calcium, or panleukopenia. Seek a vet promptly for diagnosis, and do not give any medicine before the cause is known.
Why is my dog drooling?
Many causes: fear, excitement, cooling, oral disease, poisoning, rabies. Fear brings drooling, hiding, shaking—comfort the dog. Oral disease (gingivitis, ulcers) causes drooling with odor. If drooling comes with light/water fear, aggression, seizures, it may be rabies—keep distance to avoid injury.
What causes hemolysis in dogs?
Hemolysis can stem from autoimmune or hereditary hemolytic anemia, bacterial/viral/parasitic infection, poisoning, or drug allergy. The immune system may attack its own red blood cells; some dogs inherit it; toxins like onions, phenol, or aniline also cause it.
What do you think of Ramical deworming spray?
Its main ingredient is fipronil, which works within 30 minutes to kill fleas, ticks, and lice on dogs and cats. The formula is gentle—the drug stays in the sebaceous glands and doesn't enter the blood—so puppies and kittens can use it. But put an E-collar on to stop licking and poisoning.
