My cat hasn’t eaten in two days, only drinks a little water, vomits yellow fluid (urine-like), is lethargic, and losing weight fast
Not eating, yellow vomit, and lethargy can come from internal/external parasites, digestive disease, or liver problems. The cat's state is poor β see a vet promptly for targeted treatment; without care it can dehydrate or go into shock. It needs IV fluids and symptomatic treatment; blind treatment without a diagnosis can do more harm.

My dog hit its head, is foaming blood, and its nose is bleeding and drooling
Nose bleeding after a dog hits its head may be damaged nasal mucosa, but blood in the foam alongside it suggests possible concussion or brain injuryβseek veterinary care. Before the trip, clean the blood and apply an ice pack to the nose bridge to constrict vessels and slow bleeding.
My dog hit its head, is foaming blood, its nose is bleeding, and it’s drooling β what should I do?
Nose bleeding after a head bump may be damaged nasal mucosa, but with blood in the foam too, concussion or brain injury can't be ruled out. Go to a vet promptly. Before that, do basic first aid: clean the blood, and ice the bridge of the nose to constrict vessels and help stop the bleeding.
My cat keeps its head tilted to one side and rolls toward that direction when it walks β what’s wrong?
A persistently tilted head with unsteady walking can come from nervous-system disease, brain disease, ear-nerve problems, or vestibular syndrome (e.g. meningitis, otitis media, spinal-nerve issues). Get a full vet exam. Vestibular syndrome commonly causes sudden balance loss β head tilt, ataxia β appearing abruptly then gradually fading; seek care promptly.
My cat breathes fast in its sleep, sneezes, has a runny nose, and tires after just 1-2 minutes of play β what’s wrong?
Rapid breathing, sneezing, and a runny nose mainly point to a respiratory infection or another illness. See a vet for diagnosis. If a visit isn't possible now, give a pet-specific broad-spectrum anti-inflammatory and cold medicine at home; if symptoms don't ease, it may be viral β take the cat to a vet.
My two-month-old kitten has sparse fur, won’t eat, had blood-sucking bugs, and is now weak and gasping with eye discharge β is it dying?
From your description this is likely anemia and malnutrition from not eating and a parasite infestation, plus dehydration and weakness; the flea spray you used may also have caused toxicity. The kitten's condition is critical β take it to a vet immediately for IV fluids, energy, and water, plus treatment for whatever else is wrong.
