Vomiting, Diarrhea, or Drinking More Than Normal? When to See a Vet

If your cat is vomiting or has diarrhea for more than a day, or is drinking noticeably more water than usual, it's time for a veterinary visit. These signs can point to dietary upset, parasites, infections, or in some cases more serious conditions such as kidney disease, thyroid issues, or diabetes, especially in adult and senior cats. Increased thirst paired with changes in litter box habits is worth mentioning to your vet right away. At Switzerland Animal Hospital, we run diagnostics to pinpoint the cause of GI upset or excessive thirst and get your cat feeling better quickly and safely.
