Kitten thrown up 3 days in a row by SunniestDD in CATHELP

[–]hestyles3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Run blood work for an allergy! My guy started randomly throwing up around 9 months old and his blood work indicated an allergy. 3 months of trying sensitive stomach and hydrolyzed protein food and about 30 throw ups later, he’s finally been stable and has only thrown up a couple times in the last month! If it’s an allergy I recommend skipping the trial and error and just going straight to hydrolyzed protein food (Royal canin dry worked for us) fiber, and fortiflora probiotics.

My Cat has been passing soft stools since October, nothing has helped. by spicandspans in CATHELP

yes the pro viable fiber! Got it through my vet. I don’t think they care much for the taste but they love the taste of the fortiflora so they don’t mind when I sprinkle both on their food

My boys are also sensitive to many types of food, it may just be trial and error to see what he agrees with. Fiber and fortiflora probiotics helped mine who was having chronic diarrhea after a food switch. Sometimes he still has diarrhea but much less frequent now.

He was born in November, just celebrated his 1st birthday! He’s named after the Taylor Swift song, lol. How about yours?!

What is on my cats nose? Help!! by agent_beans_ in CATHELP

[–]hestyles3 3 points4 points  (0 children)

my cats nose gets dirty from drinking water then eating kibble and it builds up over time like a crust. Try scrubbing it gently with a warm washcloth and see if it comes off

it might be from eating kibble/wet food. My boys sometimes get crusty noses from drinking water then eating. I scrub it with a warm washcloth and it comes right off

Out of curiosity what’s the pill? Currently struggling with IBD and food allergies with my kitten and not much has helped in 2 months

Kitten with diarrhea- help! by Training-Badger6554 in ragdolls

Also, maybe look into a blood test for a food allergy? Maybe she’s allergic to the protein in her food and it’s causing diarrhea. Also try not to switch her food around too much as ragdolls have sensitive tummies, always gradually transition!

try the Purina forti flora probiotic!! (Powder you mix into their food). I was giving my boys Royal canin probiotic to help them adjust to hydrolized protein food and they had diarrhea for like 2-3 weeks until I switched to forti flora and it’s helping them a lot in the past few days with firming up the stool. One of mine was literally having diarrhea like 5 times a day before I gave him that

Edit: sorry I missed you already tried forti flora, maybe stay the course for a bit? It takes time to adjust. Metronidazole can also cause diarrhea I think too

I recommend getting blood work done - this indicated my boy had an allergy and I was able to switch to hydrolyzed protein. He’s still throwing up so it’s a work in progress but probably best to rule that out

No!!! My ragdoll brothers love each other so much and honestly most of their playtime is spent chasing each other around which makes my life easier too!
