Default Sick Kittah

My kitteh is sick. He has been having diarrhea for the past few hours and thrown up a couple of times.
I wish I could do something to help. He looks so sad.
And it smells so bad. :barf:
I had to give him a bath earlier. Fortunately he doesn't mind water too much so he didn't fight a whole lot.

Do you know if he ate anything weird? New plants in the house? Or did you change his food recently?

How old is he?

You could probably give him a small (teaspoon or a little more) of rice or cottage cheese. Might help settle his stomach and solidify his poops. I know that's what my vet has suggested for my dogs over the years when they're sick like that.. can't see it being too different for a kitteh.

I hope he feels better soon Try that cottage cheese/rice idea or call your vet for advice.

my vet has suggested rice for the squirts, but what you can do is take the cat to a vet.

He is feeling better now.
I got a free treat sample in the mail so I gave him a couple. I think when I was at the store he got into them, or some food in the trash.
