My cat is in good spirits but has diarrhea
Diarrhea needs a clear cause for targeted care. Low odds of panleukopenia given good spirits; internal parasites (roundworm, coccidia, tapeworm, hookworm, giardia) need dewormer; indigestion or gut disorder may become gastroenteritis — fast a day, give probiotics, anti-diarrhea, and anti-inflammatory drugs. Overeating, cold, or chilling also cause diarrhea; avoid excess food and keep warm.
My cat has been low in spirit lately, always wants to sleep, walks very slowly, has poor appetite, doesn’t like to drink, lies down all day, but sometimes perks up with its favorite toy. It used to sneeze a lot and its belly twitches
Low spirit and no eating, with prior sneezing, may be a respiratory infection - chill/cold, or herpes, calicivirus, mycoplasma. Without sneezing but just low spirit/poor appetite, other diseases like gut discomfort, indigestion, hairballs, parasites. Take it to a vet for the cause and targeted treatment.
Cat went out about an hour, stressed, vomited undigested food, then yellow foam, then white gastric fluid; no food or water; slightly low spirits, occasionally grumpy; is it serious?
For stress vomiting, fast the cat 4-6 hours in a quiet, dim, separate space and offer pheromones or catnip. If vomiting or stress continues, see a vet.
Blue cat male, born 2024.1.28; on 2024.6.5 pupils suddenly enlarged and flickering, fell over, head tilted, wobbly, low spirits but still eating; comes and goes
The cat may have middle-ear inflammation causing vestibular dysfunction and unsteadiness; dirty ears suggest mite-induced middle ear infection. A vet check and antibiotics plus ear cleaning are needed.
Over-one-month-old cat with green watery diarrhea, poor appetite, low spirits, always lying down; what is wrong?
A one-month-old with green watery diarrhea, no eating, and lethargy may have indigestion, enteritis, or panleukopenia; irregular feeding harms the gut. Such a kitten needs only milk or formula.
My just-weaned puppy came home and has been passing jelly-like stool; I only gave it lactose-free milk, but its spirits are good and appetite is fine
Jelly-like mucus stool in a just-weaned pup is likely indigestion from the new environment and diet change. Feed plain congee or warm-water-softened puppy kibble, keep the diet light, and give pet probiotics to restore gut function. Keep observing; if it worsens, get a fecal exam for parasites or infection.
My dog has vomited for three days, yellow fluid on days one and three and undigested kibble on day two. The vet said it looked fine and sent us home with medicine; day one of meds no vomit, but today (day two) it threw up kibble again. It has appetite, good spirits, normal stools, wet nose, no fever. What could it be?
Vomiting yellow fluid and undigested food suggests dietary upset or gastroenteritis; feed soaked hypoallergenic kibble in small frequent meals and nothing else. If it continues, get fecal, blood, and imaging tests.
My cat has intermittent limb twitching, drools, is low-spirited, and has very hot ears
From your description, twitching, drooling, lethargy, and hot ears don't rule out poisoning, but heart disease, encephalitis, hydrocephalus, brain tumor, epilepsy, or distemper could also cause them. Get a vet exam to confirm the cause; the symptoms are serious, so timely treatment matters.
No urination for over 24 hours, keeps licking the area, vulva swollen for a week (thought it was heat since she’s 8 months); one or two bowel movements a day, appetite okay, but low spirits
No urine for over 24 hours may be urinary blockage. If the bladder is full, get microscopy and urinalysis at a vet to tell infection from stone, then catheterize and treat. If the bladder isn't full, heat-related low water, hormone upset, or stress may be the cause — soothe her and encourage drinking; if still no urine, see a vet.
Lethargy, low spirits, poor appetite, slightly enlarged abdomen, weak hind legs, yellow urine
Based on your description, the cat likely has FIP. See a vet for diagnosis; FIP is confirmed by histopathology and has no specific cure. Treatment uses immune-suppressing and anti-inflammatory drugs, broad-spectrum antibiotics, and supportive care (IV fluids, thoracentesis).
