How to treat hamster wet tail? Tail is wet and dirty, stool is brown and watery
Wet tail is serious with high death rate, needing gentamicin, probiotics, and anti-diarrhea drugs; delay can kill within days. Take it to a vet for fluids and symptomatic anti-diarrhea, anti-inflammatory, and electrolyte care without delay.
Doberman vomiting and diarrhea with low energy, no blood in stool; won’t eat and vomits when force-fed
Canine parvovirus is an acute, severe infectious disease second only to distemper in danger, and there is no specific cure. Home treatment is not advised as it may miss the best treatment window. Early fasting and withholding water are recommended, and oral medication should be avoided.
My cat sat in the litter box but produced no urine or stool, and keeps licking its private area — could this be urinary blockage?
Frequent trips to the litter box with little or no output, genital licking, blood in urine, dripping, or crying can signal a urinary blockage. Because owners often cannot feel the swollen bladder at home, a vet exam and ultrasound are the reliable way to confirm.
Yesterday my hamster was matted with diarrhea and the cage had lots of stool; today I withheld food and gave Baoji pills three times (no smectite at home). Stool firmed up; now on glucose water and acting fine, even escaped.
The diarrhea improved and the hamster recovered. Resume easy-to-digest food in small amounts and watch for relapse; if it returns, see a vet. Don't keep giving human medicine.
My under-2-month kitten has black specks and moving black things (fleas). The vet sold Anwei spot-on, used half; should I use the rest? Also gave 1/4 internal dewormer, no worms in stool, but told to repeat in 3 days—needed or not?
Anwei works but exact kill varies; fleas may not be fully cleared at once and re-board from the environment, so treat bedding too and repeat external in 15 days. Fleas spread tapeworm, so repeat internal deworming in 3 days (fenbendazole is gentle).
My One-and-a-Half-Month-Old Puppy Has Diarrhea and Is Now Vomiting Green Stool
Vomiting and diarrhea in a newly arrived puppy may be colitis, parasites, or food allergy. Have it checked by a vet; if not possible, switch food and fast 6-8 hours if vomiting is frequent.
I found a stray kitten about a month old; after meals it passes brown soft stools, is energetic and eats well.
Brown soft stools in a young cat may be enteritis—bacterial, stress-related, parasitic, or viral. Good spirits don't rule out a virus not yet full-blown. Get a CBC, biochemistry, fecal, and virus screening; if vet isn't handy, try amoxicillin, bismuth subcarbonate, and probiotics for two days.
My dog keeps vomiting and has diarrhea; it seemed better two days ago with formed stool, then suddenly started having diarrhea and vomiting again
Repeated vomiting and diarrhea can come from diet, toxins, parasites, gut dysfunction, or viruses. Check the food first; if normal, see a vet. If care is delayed, the illness worsens. Pet antibiotics may help temporarily.
I just bought a rabbit; its steel-ball bottle leaks and can’t be used, so now I give water in a small plastic bowl, and the stool looks very wet. Is that a problem?
Soft stool can come from diet, chill, poor hygiene, or lacking good bacteria; cut fruit/veg, raise pellets and timothy, keep warm and clean. It may also be coccidia infection needing deworming.
My 2-Month-Old Puppy, Home for Only 4 Days, Is Urinating Frequently in Small Amounts, Lethargic, Refuses Food, and Vomited a Milky Liquid—Stools Form but Are Soft
A puppy that refuses food, vomits, and has soft stools is likely suffering from stress or a digestive-system illness. If unvaccinated, an infectious disease cannot be ruled out, so prompt veterinary screening is recommended.
