OLD CAT DIARRHEOA

05.08.2005

MY 16 YEAR OLD CAT IS SUDDENLY SUFFERING FROM THIS PROBLEM.SHE'S STILL EATING AND QUITE ALERT.WE HAVE BEEN AWAY FOR 2 WEEKS HOLS AND FRIENDS HAVE BEEN FEEDING. MY OTHER TWO CATS- AGED 10 ARE O.K.




hi Josie

sorry for any delay in replying tothis - our e mail facility has been misfunctioning without us knowing

the most likely cause of sudden diarrhoea is a change of diet - not unlikely in view of her being away from home

usually a return to her normal diet will sort hings out - sometimes 24 hours without food helps, then feeding 3 or 4 small meals a day for a few days until things settle.

if they dont, time to go to the vet!
