My foundling orange kitten had normal stool first day on kibble, then diarrhea; only fed kibble and lactose-free milk, gave smecta and probiotics, improved, then relapsed after stopping smecta; no fever/vomit, eats/sleeps well but diarrhea; today a bit of blood.

Give pet probiotics for diarrhea; avoid dairy (even lactose-free). If no improvement plus blood, likely parasite-induced enteritisβ€”get a fecal test first to identify the parasite, then choose dewormer (giardia/coccidia need specific drugs, common dewormers don't work; both cause persistent bloody diarrhea; also roundworm/tapeworm). Severe bleeding: oral anti-inflammatory. If blood/diarrhea with low appetite/fever/lethargy, check for panleukopenia.

Cat Diarrhea: Causes and What to Do

Cat Diarrhea: Causes and What to Do

Cat diarrhea ranges from simple diet-change soft stool in kittens to bacterial or viral enteritis and intestinal parasites. Most mild cases improve with a short fast and gut-support supplements, but enteritis needs prompt fluids and antiparasitic or antiviral care, and persistent unformed stool calls for deworming.

My donkey has diarrhea and pants after shots

For donkey diarrhea, inject cefotaxime, oxytetracycline, or gentamicin, plus probiotics and smecta. Post-shot panting may be allergy, low blood sugar, or bloat; observe and offer fresh water and fodder.

My hamster has diarrhea; is it wet tail?

Diarrhea is not always wet tail; if active, try baytril, smecta, and probiotics for 1-2 days. If very weak, it is likely wet tail, hard to cure and possibly fatal in 1-2 days; be prepared.

Physiological Traits of Newborn Puppies

Physiological Traits of Newborn Puppies

Newborn puppies are fragile and depend entirely on their mother. They can't stand at birth, regulate their own temperature, or control elimination, and their digestive and immune systems are still developing β€” they get early immunity only from the mother's colostrum, which drops sharply after 25 days. Good daily care means a warm, quiet nest, supplemental warming if the mother is absent, scheduled nursing with small frequent milk feeds, and daily checks of elimination. Watch for diarrhea and keep the umbilical area clean and disinfected with iodine to prevent infection.
