Diarrhea in cats can have a variety of causes, including dietary issues, infections, parasites, or underlying health conditions. Most of the time, diarrhea is temporary and mild in cats, and it can be resolved quickly. Here are some tips to relieve your pet:
- Promote your cat’s hydration: to avoid dehydration, make sure your cat has access to clean, fresh water.
- Lighten their daily diet: Your cat’s digestive system needs rest. Continue to feed him, a cat should not be deprived of food. However, be sure to give him reduced quantities, in split meals during the day.
- Avoid giving your cat human food, dairy products, or anything that could make diarrhea worse. Eat a simple, easy-to-digest diet.
- Consult your veterinarian: if your cat is very young or very old, if it has pre-existing health problems, or if the diarrhea persists for more than a day or is accompanied by other worrying symptoms such as lethargy, vomiting or blood in stools, it is crucial to consult a veterinarian quickly. Diarrhea may be a sign of an underlying health problem that requires professional attention.
- Include a supplement in your cat’s diet: probiotics, like prebiotics, can help restore the balance of beneficial bacteria in your cat’s intestine. Treatsy Probiotics is specially designed for this purpose. These treats will support and enrich your cat’s microbiota, facilitate intestinal transit and promote molded and regular stools. Talk to your vet!
