Hello all!
My cat is 9yo and sleeps indoor, but may go out too during the day. She was out this Saturday too. She has been off since Saturday evening, she didn't eat her evening meal until Sunday morning, and had a watery diarrhea three times on Sunday until afternoon. I called her vet, who told me to give her a human antidiarrhea medicine named ercefuryl (it contains nifuroxazide) and food for gastro intestinal issues. The medicine worked, as she hasn't pooped yet today. However she is still anorexic and will only eat food that is mousse, or lick the gravy of gravy food. She won't eat her regular food or the gastro intestinal food, which are pate. She is also not her energetic self, she just wants to cuddle on me. Today Monday is a big holiday here, so her vet and the nearby clinic are not open. I try to understand if she is in pain on her belly, but she never allowed me to pet her there, she would always grab my hand and bite it. Today, she has eaten one 85gr gourmet mousse tin, and one third of a purina a/d tin, and I will offer another gourmet in the evening. Do you think this sounds like an emergency?
