Diarrhea in kittens cannot heal itself. The kittens' various organ systems are not fully developed and cannot heal themselves through self-regulation. After the owner discovers that the cat has diarrhea, he should observe and record the symptoms of the kitten's diarrhea to help diagnose the cause of the cat's diarrhea, and provide corresponding treatment to alleviate the kitten's diarrhea.
First, it’s a dietary problem
Kittens’ gastrointestinal tracts are relatively fragile. Feeding too many snacks, spoiled food, and canned foods with greasy meat can easily cause gastrointestinal discomfort and diarrhea. In this case, the cat can be given some antidiarrheal drugs combined with probiotics, adjust its diet, and it will recover quickly.
2. Intestinal damage
If you find blood-red material in your cat’s feces, it may be intestinal damage, which is most likely caused by parasites. You need to take it to the pet hospital for treatment in time. After a fecal examination and laboratory diagnosis, and targeted medication, the cat's diarrhea will gradually be alleviated. It is also recommended that owners deworm their cats regularly to prevent the occurrence of parasites.
3. Environmental factors
If the environmental temperature changes greatly, it may cause the kitten to catch a cold or have diarrhea. The owner needs to provide the kitten with appropriate measures to keep warm.
4. Infection with viruses, such as feline distemper, can cause symptoms of fever, depression, anorexia, vomiting and diarrhea. Therefore, when the owner discovers that the kitten has diarrhea, he must take it to the pet hospital for relevant examinations to protect the kitten's life and health.
In addition, the frequency of diarrhea, the shape of the feces, changes in weight and appetite of the kitten should also be recorded. If the kitten lasts for more than a week, and if the diet adjustment is ineffective, it must be taken to the pet hospital for fecal examination and other clinical examination.
