Today i bought her DRY blue buffalo and WET blue buffalo (beef stew). She munched it all up. I know that the transition of foods should be done slowly yet since it was the same brand and only WET food i didnt think it would affect her. She did have loose stools before i fed this to her but now its diaherra  Im not sure what the cause could be. Im very paranoid and want to make sure she is okay. Im not sure if this is urgent enough to take her to the vet right away. She is acting normal, drinking and eating.
I have read about feeding her white rice which is suppose to help. So i will be sure to do that in the morning. Also i was thinking if i should just feed her DRY food for now and see if her stool hardens ???  I really appreciate any suggestions or comments. Thanks |
Take her off of all her foods. Switch her to Steamed bonless, skinless chicken and steamed rice, until under control. However, you stated that she had this issue prior to you switching foods on her (usually if dirreah occurs after switching foods it's usually after 24 hours).
If you know how to take her temp, do so. If her temp is below norm, norm is 101.2 and her tummy is growling/rumbling she may very well have enteritis, inflammation of the intestinal tract.
However, dirreah can be indicative of other issues; she should be taken to the vet to be checked.
