Kitten was fine yesterday but now hisses when touched, vomits yellow fluid, retches, sits in a hunched ‘broody hen’ pose
Sudden yellow vomit, retching and hunched pose can mean gastritis, pancreatitis, distemper, blockage or gallbladder issues; abdominal pain explains the refusal to be held. See a vet. If not possible, fast then give pet anti-vomit and probiotics.
Why does my cat frequently vomit white foam?

My cat’s eye was hit and is congested, swollen, and bleeding
After a blow causing congestion and swelling, see a vet to assess severity. If impossible now, give oral broad-spectrum anti-inflammatory and eye drops, and keep a cone on. There's risk of uveitis or glaucoma; see a vet if no improvement.
My cat has bumpy, uneven skin with dandruff — is it ringworm?
Bumps and dandruff are mainly from fungal or bacterial infection, and ringworm is possible. To confirm the type and treat it, take the cat to a vet for a skin scraping, then treat accordingly. If a visit is inconvenient, shave the area, clean and disinfect it, then apply an antifungal medication. Keep an Elizabethan collar on during treatment to prevent licking. If symptoms persist, see a vet promptly.
My dog vomited a lot of yellow watery fluid without warning after eating sausage at noon — what’s wrong?
Vomiting yellow fluid can have many causes, such as gastroenteritis, parasites, poisoning, or viral disease. Given the dog's preexisting poor appetite, an underlying gut problem is likely, so take it to a vet for fecal, abdominal ultrasound, and virus screening. If a visit is inconvenient, withhold food, and after vomiting eases give pet anti-emetic and anti-inflammatory medication; if no further vomiting, feed small frequent portions of mild foods like millet or minced-meat congee, and consult a vet if vomiting continues.
What are the symptoms of a fever in a Pug?
When a Pug has a fever, it typically shows an elevated temperature, weakness, loss of appetite, low spirits, and sleepiness, and is more easily tired than usual, preferring to lie still. If you notice these signs, take the dog to a veterinary hospital promptly to find the cause and provide targeted treatment. If a visit is temporarily inconvenient, you can first use physical cooling to relieve the fever.

Why is my dog vomiting and drooling?
Vomiting and drooling may be gastroenteritis, but also allergy, poisoning, or virus. See a vet for the cause. If a visit is hard, give pet broad-spectrum anti-inflammatory and anti-emetic, plus gut-mucosa repair medicine to ease symptoms.
My cat coughs once or twice and sneezes a few times daily, no eye discharge; what medicine?
From your description, a coughing cat with phlegm, nasal congestion, and sneezing suggests a respiratory infection, but feline herpes or calicivirus cannot be ruled out. Screen at a vet and treat by cause. If a visit is hard, give oral respiratory medicine at home and watch for improvement; if none, see a vet.
My dog’s lower eyelid has been red, swollen, and peeling for days; cheek and arm also red with a scabbed wound and hair loss
Redness, swelling, and hair loss under the eye are usually skin disease, likely fungal infection or allergy from the photo. Use an Elizabethan collar to stop scratching, then get a vet microscopy of the hair to confirm. At home keep the area dry, clean discharge, use a Wood's lamp to rule out fungus, feed hypoallergenic food, avoid salty oily food, and apply iodine and erythromycin eye ointment, plus fish oil or lecithin for coat recovery.
