HI, thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! Since this has been going on for a week I think it is time for King to see his Vet. He could be drooling because he is nauseous. Causes for diarrhea and a poor appetite are: viral and bacterial infections, dietary indiscretion, foreign bodies, intestinal parasites, metabolic conditions (kidney or liver problems), toxins or food sensitivities. I think he needs medications to help the diarrhea and nausea. You can try to feed him a bland diet of boiled chicken or hamburger with rice as small frequent meals. Feed about 3 1/2 cups total per day. I wish you and King the best of luck!
