Diarrhea is not only annoying and troublesome for your feline friend, it can stink up your home and make cleaning the litter box a real chore. The first step to eliminating your cat’s diarrhea is understanding how cats get diarrhea in the first place.

Dietary changes, including the quality of water in your area, can all affect your cat. It is important to stick to a high-quality cat food and consider providing your kitty with filtered water.

Dairy products can wreak havoc on your cat’s digestion. If you regularly feed your kitty cheese or provide him with saucers of milk, you could be giving him diarrhea.

Stress can also cause digestion problems. If you’ve moved, brought home a new pet, or are spending less time at home, it may be enough to cause diarrhea.

Some medical conditions, including parasites, can also cause diarrhea, so it’s important to check in with your veterinary clinic Vista. Or click here.
