Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! I'm sorry to hear Casper isn't feeling well. It is likely his motility is increased since he's having diarrhea. If the diarrhea continues longer than 24 hours I recommend taking Casper to a vet to determine the cause (rule out parasites or infectious causes) and get him medications to cure the diarrhea. Significant diarrhea can cause dehydration so he may also need additional fluids. Good luck and kisses to Casper!
