Pet's info: Cat | Mixed Breed | Male | neutered
My cat has had diarrhea for the past two months and I was curious if I could give him any medication or food and what to do or a diet.Also, he has been peeing in a behavioral issue like to the point where if he sees another animal he auto pees right then and there because he is angry.And then he continues to pee all over the house until the other animals scent is gone and we clean up his pee.What should I do about that?

Submit a stool sample to your veterinarian to diagnose intestinal parasites or bacterial overgrowth. Deworm him if indicated. You can also have the vet collect a sterile urine sample to submit for urinalysis and culture to rule out UTI or stones. In the meantime, try a 24 hour fast followed by a bland diet in small, frequent amounts. Begin with one tablespoon of food every hour and gradually increase the amount. Feed bland until the stool is normal then transition slowly to the regular diet. Consider a veterinary probiotic, such as FortiFlora, ProViable or ProStora, to promote gut health. A pheromone product such as Feliway spray or plug in diffuser may decrease any anxiety. A small animal repellant along the border of your property will keep strange animals away and out of sight. Thoroughly clean soiled areas using an enzymatic cleaner such as Nature's Miracle.
