What Should I Do When My Cat Has Diarrhea?

Dear pet owners,

The health of our cats is always our top priority. Unfortunately, our cats can sometimes experience diarrhea, which can be quite alarming for both them and us. But don't worry, Jorgen's Kennel is here to help.

What is Diarrhea and What are its Causes?

Diarrhea is a condition in which cats frequently and loosely pass stools due to intestinal problems. This condition can negatively impact a cat's health and requires prompt intervention.

Diarrhea can have many causes:

• Food allergy or intolerance
• Parasites
• Bacterial or viral infections
• Stress
• Sudden dietary changes
• Side effects of some medications

What are the symptoms of diarrhea?

There are several ways to tell if your cat has diarrhea:

• Frequent and liquid stools
• Appearance of blood or mucus in the stool
• Anorexia
• Thirst
• Weakness
• Weight loss

If we observe any of these symptoms in our cat, we should consult a veterinarian immediately.

What Should We Do In Case of Diarrhea?

The first thing you should do in case of diarrhea is to encourage your cat to drink plenty of fluids and increase their water intake. You can also follow a special diet recommended by your veterinarian. This diet will soothe the intestinal tract and speed up the healing process.

If diarrhea persists or you notice additional symptoms in your cat, you should consult your veterinarian immediately. Your veterinarian will determine the cause of the diarrhea and recommend appropriate treatment.

At Jorgen's Kennel, we place great importance on pet health. That's why we offer top-quality vitamin and mineral supplements to help our cats stay healthy. We'd be happy to help you with this.
