If a cat has diarrhea, the owner has to figure out the cause of the diarrhea in the first place, because different causes can have different “medicine”. In order to play the most rapid and effective effect. Let’s take a look at the various reasons.
① Indigestion
This is the most common cause of common diarrhea problems. Especially under six months of kittens, if it is simple dyspepsia – runny stool. First, you can change the food. Because the kitten’s stomach is very delicate, the digestive system is also very weak, compared with the human, a lot less digestive enzymes. So you can’t give cats human food. Cats under three months old should NOT BE fed canned or whole meat, which can CAUSE indigESTION. Check the ingredients of the food. If there are ingredients your cat can’t eat, stop using them and replace them with foods such as goat’s milk and porridge that are easy for your cat to digest. At the same time, give LACTase (two tablets at a time) three times a day, and you will be back to normal in a few days. If NEED, ALSO CAN stop feeding the food of a day or two, let it recuperate intestines and stomach first. But don’t give it nothing at all.
Second, keep warm. At the turn of the season, especially in autumn and winter, the environment temperature drops significantly, many cats will have diarrhea. In fact, as long as the cat’s mental condition, appetite and normal conditions do not differ, it may be accidentally caught cold. The owner strengthened the cat’s warm measures and adjusted its food mix. It’ll be over in a few days.
(2) gastroenteritis
If the cat in addition to diarrhea, mental condition is not very good, plus a significant rise in body temperature. This situation MAY be that the cat has gastroenteritis (cat fever), if you are sure that the cat has preventive treatment, you can help your cat at home. Go to a drugstore and buy a common gentamicin injection twice a day. After half an hour of each dose, you can give it a probiotic to help it digest.
③ Parasite problem
Go to the hospital first to do a stool check, come again targeted medication. This may require injections and medication. If it is caused by parasites, the stool will be obviously bloody, so it is recommended to deworm your pet every three times to prevent this from happening.
