It sounds like Cokey may be experiencing some gas, and his stomach could be upset. I recommend trying a bland diet of boiled white meat chicken (no bones) and white rice in small amounts several times a day for a couple of days to see if that helps. If that doesn't help with his gas or he develops other signs such as vomiting, diarrhea, anorexia, or extreme lethargy, I would take him into the vet. I hope this helps!

This depends entirely on why the condition occurs - adverse food reactions, colitis and pancreatitis would be amongst the most common causes but there are many possibilities. A liquid feed replacer such as viyo recuperation may help to settle her bowels and promote faster recovery and changing her diet to a low fat or hydrolyzed diet would also be recommended
