Cat Sick - Unsure of Next Steps

Hi there! It sounds like your kitty isn't feeling their best, and I completely understand your worry. Cats can become ill for a variety of reasons, including minor infections, dietary indiscretions, or even something they got into around the house. Sometimes, it might just be a simple upset stomach.



One common sign to watch for is vomiting. If it's infrequent, your kitty might just need some time to clear their system. Additionally, monitor their litter box habits. Changes in frequency or consistency of bowel movements, combined with lethargy or a lack of appetite, can signal something more serious.



To help at home, you can try offering your cat small amounts of a bland diet, focusing on easily digestible foods. Make sure they have plenty of fresh water to stay hydrated, especially if they're vomiting or have diarrhea.



However, if your cat's symptoms persist beyond 24 hours, or you notice signs like vomiting persistently, significant change in energy levels, or refusal to eat or drink, it may indicate something more serious like an obstruction or a viral infection.



To get a clearer picture of what's going on with your feline friend, I recommend booking a video consult with a Dial A Vet professional. They'll be able to guide you through next steps or recommend an in-person exam if necessary. Your kitty's health is our top priority!
