cat with explosive diarrhea every day, and there's no life threatening cause for it.

Hello there! I'm sorry to hear about your cat's tummy troubles – I know that's never any fun for either of you. There are a few reasons why your kitty might be experiencing explosive diarrhea, even when there isn't a life-threatening cause.



Food intolerance or allergies are common culprits. Cats can sometimes react poorly to certain proteins or ingredients in their diet. Stress can also wreak havoc on their digestive systems, especially if there’s been a recent change in their environment. Additionally, it's worth considering if there's been any recent exposure to new plants or cleaning products.



At home, you can try switching to a bland diet for a few days – plain, boiled chicken and rice are usually gentle on their tummies. Ensure your cat has plenty of fresh water available to prevent dehydration. You might also want to keep an eye on the litter box to monitor any changes.



In terms of serious signs to look out for, be attentive to any blood in the diarrhea, lethargy, vomiting, or if your cat stops eating or drinking. These could indicate a need for immediate veterinary attention.



For ongoing diarrhea or if you're unsure about making diet adjustments yourself, I recommend scheduling a video consult with one of our veterinarians here at Dial A Vet. They can provide personalized advice and discuss next steps.
