Pet's info: Cat | Maine Coon | Female | 8 years and 8 months old
I've been told by one of your vets to get a probiotics for my cat who has diarrhoea yesterday and still today. Can she have wet food still and is she ok to go out or do I need to keep her in and just give her her biscuits and water? As this wasn't in the answer also where will I get a probiotic from do they sell them in pet stores or is it just from a vet only?

There was a link in the answer to the probiotic. You can buy it online without a prescription. I don't live in the UK so I do not know if you can purchase it in a pet store. You will have to call around and see. The answer says you can feed her some canned food to hide the probiotic but just enough to mix it in. You can let her outside if you absolutely have to but it is better for her to stay indoors so you can monitor the stools better. Hope this clarifies.
