    Cat wants to eat everything on the floor

    i’ve wondered if he does it to purposely make himself throw up. It’s hard to tell because the days when i stop him from eating enough that he just gives up he seems fine. He’s especially always loved any kind of plastic wrapper, if he finds one of those he’ll always want to eat it. i’m wondering...

    Cat wants to eat everything on the floor

    Hi, he’s had his blood work done a couple time over the past couple years and everything has bern good he’s also had his teeth looked at and the vet said they’re not the best but also not too bad. He’s around 18 years old and he’s definitely done this his whole life so pica would not surprise me...

    Cat wants to eat everything on the floor

    hi all, i was hoping maybe someone else has a cat that does this and was hoping for some tips. My cat has loved to eat things he isn’t supposed to his entire life but the past couple years it’s especially bad in the morning. Whenever he wakes up in the morning his first instinct seems to be to...

    Sudden gastroenteritis

    Thank you guys for the responses. He ended up having a pretty large bowel movement about 30 minutes after i posted that question and that one wasn’t dry so i’ll just have to wait and see

    Sudden gastroenteritis

    Hi all, I wanted to ask a quick question and give a quick update. Boots is doing better he hasn’t had diarrhea since that night and and hadn’t vomited at all up until about 10 minutes ago but the reason he vomited was because his stool was very dry and hard making him strain a lot. That brings...

    Sudden gastroenteritis

    his name is Boots. He’s a tuxedo cat who looks like he has little white boots on so of course we weren’t very original.

    Sudden gastroenteritis

    So sorry to hear your cat had lymphoma! i’m not going to lie i’ve been absolutely terrified at the thought of it being intestinal lymphoma. He’s definitely improved a lot since tuesday, his appetite is better and he hasn’t thrown up but he hasn’t tried to poop yet so i’m extremely anxious about...

    Sudden gastroenteritis

    he eats a mixture of both wet and dry. Thank for the suggestion i might try that! He has such a sensitive stomach so i know i need to change something but him being such a picky eater just makes everything so hard.

    Sudden gastroenteritis

    hm i didn’t even really think about parasites. For i think about two weeks after the initial constipation episode he would have a tiny amount of blood on his poop but the poop itself was normal and the amount of blood was so minuscule i didn’t want to put him through a vet visit. The blood did...

    Sudden gastroenteritis

    sounds a lot like my cat except anytime we changed his diet he would get constipated rather than have diarrhea. I feed him friskies and proplan 11+, i really want to switch him off the friskies because i know it’s not good but like i said switching foods has been really difficult in the past. He...

    Sudden gastroenteritis

    I did ask the vet if the fake now incident could have caused this and she kinda dismissed it saying she thinks if that were the case it would have happened closer to the incident. We got dasequin from the vet but he absolutely refused to eat any food that we mixed it into so i bought a liquid...

    Sudden gastroenteritis

    Hi everyone, I wanted to know the experience of others who had their cat suddenly experience gastroenteritis. My boy was okay a few days ago but seemed a bit tired. He was still eating normally so i hoped it was nothing then later in the night he went poop and had a difficult time. It’s not...

    Red blood in cat poop

    small update: for anyone who may stumble on this thread and have some advice. I made this post last night when he pooped what was in the picture above with the small amount of blood, it’s now about 6 hours later and he’s pooped again but this time without any blood. I’m really not sure what to think

    Red blood in cat poop

    i’ll look into taking in a stool sample thank you for the advice. i am hesitant to think it’s IBS because the times he’s been constipated it’s been due to him eating either things he wasn’t supposed to (like the fake snow) or brands of food that his stomach is not used to. I also know that the...

    Red blood in cat poop

    I also forgot to mention the night he came home from the vet he was given a very large dose of lactulose which caused him to get out the hard pieces that were in his colon but he went back in a few minutes later and had diarrhea. This is the only time he has had diarrhea but i’m not sure if...

    Red blood in cat poop

    he does seem to have some little like flakes of poop i guess would be the best way to describe it, but i don’t see any cuts or anything like that. When he was constipated and came home from the vet it was a pretty large bowel movement so it would make sense if it irritated something but would...

    Red blood in cat poop

    Hi all, feels like i’ve been posting a lot on here lately but i’m truly at a loss and could really use some advice. In the beginning of january my senior cat lost most of his appetite and was taken to the vet where it was determined he was constipated and had pretty bad gas most likely due to...
