What do you give a cat for diahrea?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

There can be a number of causes for diarrhoea in a cat. The most common ones are changes to the normal food, the food isn't agreeing with the cat or is being given human food too frequently. Even stress or a change in environment can cause diarrhoea in some cats, such as moving furniture around.

Bland food is very easy on the stomach. Plain cooked chicken (tiny amounts of rice are often recommended also, but are not compulsory) helps calm the cat's stomach, and should be fed for a few days, or until the cat's bowel movements are back to normal. Cooked white fish can also help.

In addition to plain foods, malt pastes such as "Pro-kolin" are also very effective. This should be available at your local vet and in some pet shops. Malt pastes encourage beneficial bacterial flora in the cat's stomach and gut, which help calm the digestive system. Most cats like the taste and will lick this off a finger.

It is imperative that you get your cat to drink as much as possible during this time. Diarrhoea is very dehydrating which can cause even more problems (and quickly can become fatal in kittens). Adding a little chicken stock (the juice the chicken was cooked in) into the cat's water, or enticing it to drink some kitten or cat milk usually works.

If the diarrhoea has not cleared up in two or three days, take the cat to the vet.

Where do you feel movements when your 19 weeks pregnant?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

I am four months pregnant with my second child, and I feel fetal movement in my abdomen a little to the left of my navel. Once you are farther along with your pregnancy, you should be able to feel movement pretty much anywhere in your stomach area.

Does ginger ale actually help with nausea?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Cola syrup helps with nausea because it has phosphoric acid that helps to sooth the stomach. Drinking flat Coca-Cola as a substitute of cola syrup will have the same effect.

The past couple of days I have felt my baby everyday..and now I dont. How often should you feel your baby move at 19 weeks?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

I am actually 20 weeks which leaves me to understand that we are in close range. Nevertheless, you need not be worried as the baby is still very much premature and has a long way yet to go. But it is wise to ask such a question as being an expectant mother myself I sometimes worry over this as well. i.e yesterday and today, I have noticed a reduction the the amount of times my unborn one has moved. But do not worry, as long as you do the regular walking and move about, eat right and do not lift heavy equipment etc, get enough rest, you will be fine. From 25 weeks onwards, the kick counts will increase. :-)

Is it possible for a woman who is 24 weeks pregnant to leak breast milk?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Perhaps there are many possible factors such as:

1. GROWTH HORMONES (GH) or somatotrophin and chicken prolactin/ovine prolactin administered by the poultry manufacturing industry in chickens, subsequently affects the pituitary gland to produce breast milk hormones (the fact that I've changed my diet from an Organic Raw Vegetarian to Semi Vegetarian which includes fish and poultry of non organic producers) which increase breast size in humans this would be chicken prolactin which increases the size of chickens and 'fattens' the chickens; (check out: http://www.freepatentsonline.com/5053391.html)

2. GLAND STIMULATION from SUCKING THE BREASTSduring love making. The blood flow stimulates the glands of the breasts.;

3. ENLARGED PITUITARY CONDITION -- The pituitary gland in addition to producing other hormones for glands like the adrenals (ACTH), growth hormones (GH), thryoid (TSH), follicles for hair (FSH), to name a few, also produces the prolactin hormone (PRL) for breast milk growth. An imbalance can cause a tumor in the Pituitary Gland called hyperprolactinaemia.

4. MEDICATIONS such as metoclopramide or thioridazine cause increased levels of the prolactin hormone;

5. DUCT ECTASIA in older women can increase milk secretion in the breasts.

Can you feel a baby move at 15 weeks?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Every woman is different. Although it is unlikely in first time mothers, do not completely rule it out. It could also be gas you are feeling.

Most first time Mums feel movement at around 20 weeks, and second time Mums around 16 weeks.

I dont think it honestly matters if you are a first time mom or not! If you understand what is going on with your body im pretty sure anyone can tell between gas and the baby, i dont know about other women because everyone is different but gas and the baby felt different to me. I am a first time mom and I felt my baby around 15 weeks. And after the first day of feeling the baby i felt it more and more everyday. So, it is possible.

How early in a pregnancy do you start to feel the fluttering inside you?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

I felt that same sensation very early on in all three of my pregnancies--like bubbles or fluttering. I believe it was around 7-8 weeks for each. Everyone said that it couldn't be the fetus because the fetus is too small, and that's probably true. However, it's definitely related to the pregnancy because I only felt that particular sensation when pregnant. Never before, never in between pregnancies, and never after I stopped having babies.

Most women don't feel the "fluttering" until about 4 or 5 months along. But some women who have been pregnant before can detect it a bit earlier.

I started feeling little flutters at about 3 months pregnant but now I'm 3 months 3 weeks and I feel little taps in my belly its weird even though its my 3rd baby.

when i was pregnant my doctors said that most first time moms start to notice movement at 24 weeks of pregnancy, that was almost right on for me with my first, however with my second child i noticed a lot sooner since i knew what to be feeling for, i noticed with my second around 15 to 18 weeks, which the doctor also said was not uncommon.

Can you feel your baby move at 8 weeks?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Yes, it's definitely possible, no matter what anyone says. My midwife felt my little girl kick at 10 weeks, because she knew where to push down and what not. She's a strong little baby at 20 weeks right now but my boyfriend still hasn't felt it, but it can take a little time for a casual outsider to feel it.

Don't doubt yourself, if you think it's your baby, it probably is. :)

How does a hamsters stomach look during pregnancy?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

They'll grow around the middle. Not like a human pregnancy with a bump in the stomach (although the pregnancy will show here at first) but all around; their hips and stomach both will look very bloated and if you touch it GENTLY will feel somewhat firm and bumpy.

When does a mother feel the baby during pregnancy?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Feeling your baby move for the first time when you are pregnant is very exciting. Your baby started moving around around 7 weeks, but you won't be able to feel him until 16 - 22 weeks. If you have already had a baby, you might be able to feel it a little earlier because you know what the movement feels like. Mothers have described the movements as butterflies or even popcorn popping in your stomach. Once you feel the movement more frequently you will be able to tell without a doubt that it's the baby moving and not gas or hunger pains. The movements start out fairly weak, but late in your pregnancy they will get much stronger!

Is it possible to feel your baby's heartbeat through your belly?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

No, with a Doppler stethoscope it can be heard at approx. 8-10 weeks in a thin woman.An ultrasound machine can see the fetal heart at 6-8 weeks depending on the qualiity of the machine. The fetal heart is way to small to feel early in the pregnancy, in fact, it cannot even be felt at full term.

Im 6 months pregnant and my baby has not move since last night is that normal?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

It is nothing to worry about until you have movement on a regular basis and should keep track. If you notice a lack of movement, you should contact your doctor soon (don't panic this doesn't mean you are having a miscarriage, just room for concern and you doctor may want to induce you early to protect the health of you and your baby).

How do you know whether you are vomiting due to food poisoning or because you are pregnant?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Food poisoning sets in anywhere from a few minutes to a few hours after eating. It also makes you so violently sick that sometimes you cannot make it out of the bed.

Morning sickness or pregnancy nausea is normally not so violent and is often triggered by a smell or memory of a taste. It lasts alot longer than food poisoning as well.

If you think you have food poisoning though, you should really go to the hospital. I think food poisoning can kill you. Good luck.

What is Uterus size at 31 weeks?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

At 31 weeks the top of the uterus is approximately mid-way between the belly button and the bottom of the breast bone. How big you look depends on a lot of things, how good your abdominal muscles are, how tall you are, how slim or big you are/were etc. I have looked after several women who hardly appear to be pregnant at all, and a couple of young girls who have concealed their pregnancies even from their families until they have delivered full-term babies.

How early do you feel hiccups in pregnancy?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

With the first baby, the movements are usually feltbetween the 18th and 20th week of pregnancy (although the baby actually begins to move from as early as the 9th week). In subsequent pregnancies, movements are usually felt between the 16th and 18th week.

Can you feel your baby move at 1-2 weeka of pregnancy?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

No at 6weeks your baby is still an embryo and it's arms and legs are still forming and would just be small buds at this point. You probably will start to feel your baby's movements shortly after the second trimester. I was able to feel my baby's flutters around 16weeks, so something for you to look forward to soon. Best of luck with your pregnancy.

You are 29 weeks pregnant measuring 31 weeks is this bad?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

this could mean a few things you could have your dates wrong or you are just having a small baby take a look at your 18-20 week scan and compare how much the baby has grown and then discuss this with your doctor there could be other factors but you should follow everything up for your own piece of mine good luck

I am 24 weeks pregnant and my baby doesn't move Is that normal?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

The moving of your baby is usually very reassuring. It isn't unusual for a baby to have quiet times when there is not a lot of activity. It may help to lay on your side to notice if the baby is moving or if it is still. If you feel the baby is not as active as what seems normal, discuss it with your doctor. You can always visit your doctor to hear the baby's heartbeat, but in most instances, there is nothing to worry about. Good Luck, Stacey I am in my 5th month of pregnancy also,And it helps to lay on my back,or to lay on my side and just leave my hand on my stomach to catch its quick moves. While it may be normal in some cases I would just like to add that I was pregnant at four months my doc told me the baby was under weight and would be ok. At five months I hardley ever felt him move. At six month I had lost all my fluid and had him he only weighed one pound and almost did not make it he is healthy now. Just be very careful and make sure if you think something is not right go strait to your doctor.

Is it possible to feel fluttering at 2-4 weeks pregnant?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

I am 28 weeks pregnant and my ob tech as well as the sonographer, both say this is impossiable because at four weeks your baby has not developed enough weight to be felt. Most women are just becoming aware of there pregnancy at this point.

What does fetal movement feel like at 24 weeks?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Spotting in the second trimester needs to be evaluated by your doctor or clinic. The fact that you feel fetal movement is good. Call your doctor!.
