What are the symptoms of a cold in kittens?

What are the symptoms of jaundice in cats?
Jaundice in cats primarily shows up as lethargy, poor appetite, and yellowing of the skin and visible mucous membranes such as the eyes, nose, and mouth. Skin yellowing is the most obvious sign. Jaundice is linked to excess bilirubin production or impaired elimination, and can be caused by conditions such as fatty liver, pancreatitis, or feline infectious peritonitis.

Can Dog Food Cause Tear Stains? How Diet Affects Them
Some dogs' tear stains are diet-related, but not always the food's fault. Food can worsen stains through allergies, excess salt or additives, or mineral imbalance. If stains worsen after switching food, change it; if diet isn't the cause, see a vet to rule out blocked tear ducts or other issues.

Measure the temperature; over 39.5 degrees C means fever. Cool the paw pads, ears, and belly with alcohol for physical cooling, and if it stays high, take it to a vet for a fever shot.
Cat Hates Water and Won’t Bathe? A 3-Step Desensitization Plan
Cats aren't really afraid of water — they're afraid of the loss of control when forced into a strange situation and soaked. Bad past experiences make it worse. Desensitize gradually: let them explore the bathroom, get used to water sounds and tools, then simulate the bath, and keep indoor cats to a bath only every 3–6 months.
