What can we do when cats have diarrhea?

Occasional diarrhea in cats can be caused by the following reasons:

Stress

Change of food

Lack of internal and external parasite vaccination

Intestinal diseases

Changes in hydration levels

Colitis

Constant food changes and raw food consumption

The use of medicines for humans

If you must change the food that your pet friend eats all the time, the old food should be decreased more and more and the new food should be increased little by little to make the transition to the new food. Otherwise, the pH of the stomach will be disturbed, and diarrhea will occur. Improper raw feeding or switching directly to a raw diet can also be another cause of diarrhea in the first place. You should stop your pet friend’s wet food consumption for a while, make sure the little friend is drinking plenty of water, and observe until the diarrhea goes away. If diarrhea persists for more than 3-4 days, you should consult a veterinarian. The use of medicines used for humans to stop diarrhea in cats will cause poisoning along with diarrhea. Avoid this at all costs. A few days of diarrhea may be normal as a reaction to you, as a lack of attention or new friends in the house can also trigger a stress factor. In cases where vaccination against internal parasites is interrupted, diarrhea is inevitable, and you will see parasites in your pet friend’s poop. For this reason, vaccination of internal and external parasites should be inevitable.
