Feline diarrhea is not so common but it does exist. Unlike in other pets, the cats seldom have diarrhea bouts. Once it occurs, it is one of the most tiresome cat diseases to deal with. Diarrhea itself is not a disease. It is an indication that something is not right inside the gastrointestinal loop of the cat. It could last anywhere between 1-3 weeks, normally. It is also not a huge concern unless there is blood or mucus in the stool. It should be relieving to know that, feline diarrhea is curable without medications and there is no need to trouble them with the drugs. 

Feline diarrhea types

Mainly, there are two types of feline diarrhea, acute and chronic. The acute diarrhea is comparatively shorter but happens all of a sudden. Any new diet, presence of bacteria, toxins or other intolerant food can cause this sudden bout of diarrhea in cats. Normally it could continue for a maximum of 3 weeks. 

Chronic diarrhea is that lasts for more than 3 weeks. This is a huge cause for concern. Prolonged diarrhea can cause dehydration in cats and could also be fatal. Chronic diarrhea is also categorized for cases where blood or mucus is seen in the stool. Both of them can hint there is inflammation or internal injury which needs extensive treatment. 

Reasons for diarrhea

Technically, the reasons for diarrhea are osmotic imbalance, motility disorders, over secretion and intestinal exudation. The osmotic imbalance is caused when there are organic molecules present in excess. It is something that we relate to food poisoning. The food or the particle here draws more water into the intestine. The motility disorder is the inability of the intestinal muscles to control itself and causes muscle spasms as soon as the food enters. Intestinal exudation is the excess secretion of blood and its fluids from ulcers or breakouts on the intestinal wall. 

As much as we love to give the cats some milk, they are intolerant to the lactose in it. Their body shows its intolerance through diarrhea. Unknowingly, we might be making them sick. If you have not given milk to your cat earlier, do not start all of sudden. They are not made to drink cow’s milk. 

Cats that are sending too much of time outside could be eating anything. The garbage, spoiled food, non-food item, foreign bodies,   all could cause a leaky gut in cats. So be aware of where you cat is, what it is eating. 

No one pays much attention to the poisonous plants in the neighborhood. The cats when wander out might be nibbling on the leaves of those toxic plants and you might be aware of it. So make a mental note to check on the type of plants you have around. 

The next possible reason for cat diarrhea is bacterial infection in their intestine. Bacteria, virus, or other parasites could all cause the same effect. 

Diseases of liver, kidneys, pancreas, and even thyroid in cats could cause diarrhea. The cat will suffer a loss of appetite and loses weight faster. 

When to call the vet

I have a friend who has a cutie cat. She gets into an apoplexy if her cat so much as sneeze and cough. Diarrhea is a serious condition and you are perfectly alright if you panic. The fact, you don’t need to get paranoid when you notice the wetness in the litter box. You need to have some patience, unless of course there is blood or mucus. 

If the stool looks normal in color or is just plain loose, you must give it some time. If you happen to give the kitty some new type of food, cease the food and see if the health is getting any better. Even after two days, there is no improvement, make an appointment with the vet. 

A change in the cat’s behavior, fever, lack of energy, vomiting, etc should be considered problematic. In these cases also, seek medical attention at the earliest. If diarrhea shows recurrent presence and is not resolving after 2-3 days, the vet is the best person to take charge of the situation. 

Home remedy is the first aid for diarrhea

The first thing you need to check if there was any new food. If yes, eliminate it. You could also bar the milk. The other ways come only next. 

• Fasting: Diarrhea is the distress of the intestine. When you notice diarrhea, make the cat fast for at least 12 hrs. Keep it on a liquid diet only and no solid food. You could swipe some maple syrup over its lips to keep up its energy. Make it drink plenty of water and other liquid forms like soup, but absolutely no milk. 
• Bland food: After 12 hrs, serve some bland food, homemade. Boil and mash some potatoes or serve some overcooked rice, both should work. You could also mix some cooked chicken breast with the rice. Remember no spices or additives. The best option is to serve baby food. Serve this food 3-4 times throughout the day. 

Alternatively, serve some mashed pumpkin for the cats. Many cats love the taste and would prefer over the rice or potatoes. 

• Probiotics: Once you have moved through day 1, mix some probiotics in the diet. Plain unflavored yogurt will also do good for the cats. Either serve it directly or mix with its food. The good bacteria help counter any bad microbes in the intestine and help a speedy recovery. 
• A high fiber diet will help stop the leaky gut. The fiber makes the bulk would bring things to a halt. It would also keep the cat fuller. 
• Herbal treatment for feline diarrhea: Slippery elm is an effective herb for diarrhea. Add a teaspoon of powdered form of this herb in the cat’s diet. It can be effective fast enough. It is also available in capsule form, mix half the contents of one capsule in the cat’s diet. This herb is high in fiber that helps the stool form harder. 
• Chamomile tea or peppermint tea also would be effective. 
• Whatever you do, please do not go for the over-the-counter medicines. They could be toxic and make the situation worse. 

Normally, any minor stomach upset should be cured by these methods. If the cat does not show any improvement or still have recurrent accidents, it is time for the veterinarian. 

Usual treatment

The treatment methods for cat diarrhea involve the use of antibiotics, de-worming medicines, or even IV depending on the water loss. All of these need a thorough diagnosis and the target treatment works best. 

You could also move along the home remedies along with the medicines. Keeping track of the cat’s behavior, how often does it defecate, amount each time, etc could be helpful for the treatment.

Arriving with a body of 2-4 inches long, these spaghetti-like creatures are one of the common types that infect your pet.

2. they can also get infected via mother’s milk
3. roundworms measure up to 6 inches long
4. the eggs of roundworms can live for many years and still cause infection

HOOKWORMS

Description

Bloodsucking intestinal parasite, they can cause anemia or even prove fatal in both kittens and adult feline. Unlike roundworms, they do not pass via stool. This makes them hard to detect. The best way to diagnose is by conducting a fecal test. The severity depends on many factors such as cat’s health, age, etc.

Facts

1. kitties can get infected through mom cat’s milk
2. the larvae of worm enters the cat through their skin. They move with the blood to the lungs where they are coughed and swallowed
3. as in the name, these worms have ‘hooks’ in their mouth wherein they hook themselves to the intestine
4. the female can produce up to 5000-10000 eggs a day (Yikess…!!!)

TAPEWORMS

Description

Come in 1/4-1/2 inches long, tapeworms can be noticed crawling around cat’s fur or feces. When dried, these maggots look like a grain of uncooked rice or sesame seed. You can find them in cat’s bedding. Tapeworms reside on the small intestine and rely on the nutrients from your cat’s food.

Facts

1. if your cat eats an infected flea, it can get tapeworm
2. few tapeworms can grow up to 15 feet long

WHIPWORM

Description

Competing with hookworms and other types is whipworm that bury their head into the cat’s intestine and suck out the blood. Symptoms include diarrhea, weight loss and blood loss.

Facts

2. The name is given due to their whip like appearance.
3. Eggs of whipworm are quite hardy and can live outdoors in the soil for many years.

COCCIDIA

Description

They are not worms but actually a single cell microscopic organism. Symptoms noticed in young cats/dogs include watery diarrhea and vomiting. Rare seen are severe diarrhea that can prove fatal if not taken an instant step.

NATURAL REMEDIES TO BEAT WORM PROBLEMS IN YOUR CAT

Natural remedies…Really? Are they are any good? You might wonder. 

But that’s the thing about natural home remedies. They offer you healthy results without any side effects. Hey, but if you want to go for alopathy I won’t stop you. But bear in mind that synthetically made pills work only temporary and do not have a lasting effect. Worst prolonged use can cause adverse health effects on your pets.

Here are few natural home remedies, in case you change your mind and switch to this better option.

1. Pumpkin seed – the raw, organic product they have been for years to get rid of hooks and tapeworms. If your cat is frequently getting ingested, you might want to consider this option. Take a tsp of ground seed per 10 lbs of the pet’s body weight. Grind the seeds to a powder and keep it in the freezer. Mix this to your cat food every day. For those who are not aware, pumpkin seeds work as a great dietary supplement. It doesn’t matter if your pet has worms or not, pumpkin seeds is another of nature’s tricks to boost cat health. A rich source of zinc, vitamin A and protein, this is best recommended than any other nut or seed.
2. Allium sativum – better known as garlic. That’s right. A powerful food ever created that gets rid of A-Z of any health condition, garlic works against a parasite called Giardia. A regular diet of garlic can boost the immune system and inhibit recurring health problems such as infections. Simply mince and add to your cat food (1/4-1/2 clove daily). If your cat is suspicious add the minced clove to a small amount of warm cream and feed her.
3. Papaya – papaya works wonders not only for humans but for pets as well. A study conducted on pigs says that papaya is effective in getting rid of roundworms. Papaya is a great source of digestive enzymes and delivers the necessary protein to your pet.
4. Carrot – clean your cat’s digestive system with a carrot. The recommended dosage a day is 2tsp-2tbsp based on your cat’s size.
5. Black walnut – a common anti-parasitic supplement for dogs and cats, it treats tapeworms efficiently. Follow the dosage as recommended by your Vet and do not go overboard to cut out any adverse health effects.
6. Turmeric – the active content called curcumin in turmeric has the superability to reduce inflammation and rejuvenate the body from any intestinal damage caused by worms. There are several animal studies that show that turmeric protects the liver from any damaging chemicals. Since it has anti-platelet activity (prevent blood from clotting) make sure to consult the Vet before ingesting this herb.

Have you noticed that your cat at times can be very affectionate than her usual self? She might even meow more for longer durations (especially at night times) not to mention rolling on the floor which are all symptoms of cat heating.

If you are a new cat owner, then it is vital that you get to know your pet. Be vigilant enough to understand the symptoms that she is showing. Cat heat is one of the symptoms that your pet shows if you have not spayed her.

UNDERSTANDING CAT HEAT

In simple terms, the cat in heat indicates that she is ready to mate. It is the repetitive female reproductive cycle in a year. It’s a seasonal and hormonal change that arouses the sexual receptiveness in her. It heightens fertility in female cats making her more ready for mating.

The changes in behavior can be very unusual for a normal cat but once you know the reason, the whole scenario will be less stressful to you. If you have not spayed your cat, then these signs will help you.

The right age for cat heating varies from 6 months to one year depending on the cat’s breed. Few cats attain repeated estrus cycle (reproductive cycle) right from 4 months of age. For some it can take a year as well to show sexual maturity. Once they mature the heating cycle begins.

CAT HEATING SEASON

In countries like USA, cats breed between the months of February and October. They experience frequent heat cycles. As seasonal heating also plays a prominent role, spring is considered the most ideal season. Mating is high during spring. Since the daytime is short in winter and fall, it discourages cats to enter the estrus cycle. However indoor cats go through heat cycles throughout the year.

Cats who are growing up in Northern hemisphere prefer March to September while their relatives in southern hemisphere prefer October to March quite favourable.

HOW TO LOOK UP SIGNS AND HOW MANY DAYS DO THEY LAST?

New cat owners find it difficult which is one of the main reasons why Vet recommends spaying before the first estrus cycle starts. Few symptoms include

• Feline’s receptiveness to males which indicates that your pet is ready for fertilization
• Extraordinary affection by rubbing against you, other pets and at times furniture as well
• Becomes more vocal and meows in weird manners (to attract males)
• When you stroke her, she immediately displays a mating position (head low and hind body raised)
• Lure attention of male by spraying urine around the house
• Rolling on the floor
• Less interest in appetite
• Licking her genitals constantly
• Little blood from her genitals

The cycle usually lasts fror around 7-10 days. She may come to heat every couple of weeks if she has not mated. Cats ovulate only if they are mated or will enter the estrus cycle every 2 weeks.

HOW TO BEAT THE HEAT – 3 SOLUTIONS FOR CALMING YOUR CAT

Mating

One of the obvious ways is to allow her to mate. This will help her to cope up with the heat. However, before you do so its important to consider the consequences. If your cat mates, you need to have a dedicated home for any offspring. You also need to commit yourself for caring for your pet right from her pregnancy period to delivery ensuring proper health.

Catnip

Catnip will calm your pet. If you have already given a catnip to your feline, then you can anticipate the reaction and work with it. However, some cats can react aggressively and become even more active than before. This can be double trouble if your cat is already aggressive due to the heat. If your cat calms down with catnip, this is the best remedy for the situation.

Herbal remedies

There are many herbal remedies meant for feline. Some cat owners have even reported success but there is no single remedy that will work on every cat. Another point to note is it might not even go well with your cat. It is always better to buy small samples to try out. Once you have found the product you can get them in large quantities.

Play with your cat

Playing with her can distract her attention. However, she might tend to go back to heat again. Petting, brushing, or scratching her lower back will be more effective. Make sure that your cat is calm enough to allow you to do so.

Spaying

Spaying a cat means removing her ovaries. This will inhibit estrus cycle from occurring. It also prevents her from getting pregnant reducing risk of diseases and cancer as well. If you can’t afford a surgery right now, look up for low cost spay services. There are many pet clinics that do it at a reduced price mainly because it reduces the population of stray felines.

BEAR IN MIND to wait till the cycle is over. If you spay during her heat cycle it might lead to certain health risks, for instance, increased loss of blood.

BOTTOMLINE, always consult your Vet if you are not very wary of symptoms. Do note if you do not want your cat to get pregnant, keep her isolated from male cats. Make sure she does not escape by locking all doors, windows including pet flaps. Isolation will also keep her safe.

Healthy Gums for feline periodontal health is a herbal remedy that has been designed by an experienced veterinarian and her team to boost the gum and oral health of your cat. The product is manufactured by Pet Wellbeing at a well-hygienic FDA-registered facility. This is our review.

What is Healthy Gums for cats?

Feline periodontal diseases are quite common both in young and older cats. It occurs when the tissues that surround the teeth become inflamed or lose their deep supporting structures. This leads to plague/tartar buildup, bleeding gums, swollen gums, yellow deposits, bad breath, loss of appetite, pawing at the face, and much more.

Stating the obvious, it is the responsibility of the pet owner to maintain a healthy regime of your cat (especially when the pet reaches the age of 2-3) because such dental conditions can become irreversible after a certain stage. The sad part is cats are good at hiding their symptoms for months or years. This makes the situation even more difficult for cat owners because they might not even realize their cats are dealing with dental disease.

To prevent such situations, it is always wise to take your cat for a dental checkup at regular intervals. It is also wise to put your cat on a daily brushing spree to keep him/her safe from any periodontal disease.

While there are antibiotic medications available at the over-the-counter, natural remedies for periodontal disease always benefit your cat in multiple ways. That’s why Healthy Gums is worth a try.

It is advised to administer twice every day. The recommended dosages are –

• Cats under 10lbs – 3-4 drops

Few owners find it useful to apply gently and spread it evenly with a fingertip or a cotton swab (if the gums are NOT inflamed too much). Make sure that you do NOT cause any additional discomfort or pain while applying on infected gums. That’s because inflamed gums can be extremely sensitive at such times.

DO NOT touch the dropper to the infected areas so as to prevent contamination of the product. We understand that keeping your pet stable can be a challenge especially when they are in pain but then your pet will appreciate it.

Healthy Gums for Cats Reviews

• Willowkins from Foxboro, MA – “I was quite skeptical to buy this product. My 1 yr old cat has gingivitis even though it’s rare to see such an ailment at a young age.

Within two months, I saw a huge improvement.”
