What to Do When Your Dog Is Retching or Vomiting
Dog vomiting can come from swallowing a foreign object, overeating, or bacterial or viral gastroenteritis (parvo, coronavirus). For choking, get an X-ray; for simple regurgitation, fast 6-8 hours then feed probiotics; for lethargy with fever or diarrhea, see a vet at once. Regular deworming helps.
Chartreux
The Chartreux, also called the Chartreux Blue Cat, has the English name Chartreux. Native to France, its history dates to the 14th century. Together with the British Shorthair Blue and the Russian Blue, it is one of the world's three great blue cats. The Chartreux has a long history, recorded in publications as early as 1558.
Nebelung
The Nebelung is essentially a long-haired Russian Blue, a rare variant recognized by TICA in 1987 and hailed as the 'nobility of long-haired breeds.' Apart from its coat, it is identical to the Russian Blue. Quiet, shy, and gentle, yet intelligent and adaptable, it is well suited to calm households.
My two-month-old kitten is very thin with ongoing watery diarrhea and coughing, has a good appetite, and variable energy-what could cause this?
A thin kitten with persistent watery diarrhea and coughing may have digestive issues, parasites (roundworms, hookworms), viral infection (distemper), or upper-respiratory/cat-flu/calicivirus disease. Because symptoms persist, get a full exam: blood, fecal, X-ray, and respiratory PCR.
My cat vomited white mucus this morning, ate a little food and probiotics, and the stool is unclear but was normal before vomiting
White mucus vomiting has many causes: poor digestion, food change, hunger, hairballs, foreign objects, bacterial or viral gastroenteritis. If alert and only vomiting once or twice, fast for a day then feed bland liquid food with probiotics; see a vet if it worsens with lethargy, diarrhea, or fever.
My dog had watery diarrhea for two days, got two shots at the hospital, then didn’t poop for a day, passed normal stools last night, but at noon today had bloody diarrhea again
Recurring bloody diarrhea is from intestinal disease—poor digestion, absorption trouble, gut injury, parasites, enteritis, or virus. If the dog is alert and eating, withhold food and water, give probiotics plus pet anti-inflammatory and anti-diarrhea medicine (not human drugs). If it is weak, see a vet for X-ray, blood, and stool tests.
My dog had two episodes of no appetite and foaming at the mouth, then a coughing fit—what’s wrong?
Repeated poor appetite, lethargy, and foaming plus new coughing may signal disease or viral infection. Possibilities include digestive, viral (distemper/parvo), or respiratory issues, all needing a vet exam.
After a bath my dog coughs, won’t eat, and has loose, bloody stool—what’s wrong?
A dog that coughs, loses appetite, and has loose, bloody stool after a bath may have a cold, a respiratory infection, or a serious viral disease. It could also be enteritis or intestinal parasites, so a vet visit is needed.
Fecal test for panleukopenia was negative yesterday, but since coming home the cat lost bowel control, keeps licking its rear with stool residue, and vomited kibble this morning though it ate and drank normally after
Loose stool, vomiting, incontinence, and rear-licking can be gastroenteritis, parasites, or anal-gland issues. Rule out viruses daily and see a vet for a gut check.
My cat vomited and had diarrhea every day and then died; what happened?
Daily vomiting and diarrhea ending in death often means a bacterial, viral, or parasitic gut infection such as panleukopenia or acute gastroenteritis. Dehydration and electrolyte imbalance follow without prompt care.
