If the cat suffers from gastroenteritis, it must pay attention to choosing the right food to avoid aggravating the condition. It is recommended to give cats digestible food, such as cooked chicken, chicken breast, fish and lean meat. In addition, you can also try to feed the cat some porridge foods such as cooked rice, noodles and millet porridge, which will help relieve the symptoms of gastroenteritis in cats.
In addition, some foods containing probiotics and nutrients are also very suitable for cats, such as lactic acid bacteria drinks, chicken offal, egg yolk and so on. These foods help to regulate the intestinal flora of cats and improve intestinal immunity.
2. Avoid inedible food.
When choosing food for cats, avoid some inedible foods. For example, greasy, high-fat, irritating foods can easily lead to aggravated symptoms such as diarrhea and vomiting in cats. In addition, foods containing a lot of cellulose are not suitable for eating, because these foods will stimulate the gastrointestinal tract of cats, leading to increased inflammation. These foods include beans, corn, garlic, onions, chocolate and so on.
3. Gradually return to a normal diet.
After a cat suffers from gastroenteritis, it can gradually return to a normal diet for the cat before the symptoms are relieved. The specific operation method is to start with a small amount of digestible food, and then gradually increase the number and variety of food. However, it is important to decide according to the cat's situation. If the cat is seriously ill, it is recommended not to blindly change the diet without the guidance and advice of the veterinarian.
4. Drug therapy.
If the symptoms of gastroenteritis in cats are serious, you can consider giving some drugs to cats for adjuvant treatment. For example, cats can be given some antibiotics orally to kill pathogenic bacteria and relieve symptoms. In addition, you can also give the cat some anti-inflammatory drugs or antidiarrheal drugs with obvious curative effect to reduce the discomfort of the cat. However, when giving drugs to cats, you must follow the guidance of veterinarians and don't use drugs casually, so as not to aggravate the condition of cats.
