Sorry to hear she is still having tummy issues. If vomiting, I would hold food and let her system rest. If diarrhea, I would continue with the chicken and rice.

If it has been going on for 3 days, I would see the vet.

Age alone shouldn't cause this. There are differing opinions on the need for a senior diet. The old school of thought said that seniors need less protein. The new thinking is that seniors need just as much.

I feed my boys Fromm Chicken a la veg. My Teddy will 6.5 years old. About once a year he has a bout of diarrhea that lasts 2 days. We've taken him to the vet each time and had bloodwork done just to make sure nothing else is going on. In his case, we think he picks things up on our walks because we are very cautious and limited with diet.

Best wishes for Chloe. Keep us posted.
