We have a 8 to 9 mo. New Orleans Rescue cat. She has done very well since September. Today she started running through the house, would stop and pant then run again and finally had two episodes of explosive diarrea. She is on dry food and water. I have used the same food )pro care but do remember changing flavor from chicken to turkey a couple of days ago. Other than that I cannot think of what may be the cause. Any ideas and suggestions would be appreciated. Jean and JoeJean12@msn.com

Optional Information:
Age: <1; Female; Breed: Cat

Already Tried:
I have her in a big cage with litter, food and water . This just happened about 1 and 1/2 hours ago.

Have you gotten her any new toys that contain catnip?
Do you have plants in the house that look like they have been chewed on?
Has she been to a vet for a full checkup including deworming?

Reply to Angelia's Post: Thanks so much. She has had full work at vet negative for feline lukemia, wormed, spayed all shots. I do wonder if she got ahold of something she chewed on that made her sick.

She has come so far emotionally and physically.

I plan to take her for a check up Monday and will watch her closely to make sure she is drinking and eating.
