I'm sorry Ivory has diarrhea! It could be she has intestinal worms, a GI illness, or may have eaten something rotten. Give her a deworming treatment, and I can give you a home remedy for the diarrhea. Withhold food for 6 hours, then feed 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. Then slowly add back in her normal diet. If the diarrhea continues on the bland diet, she starts vomiting food, stops drinking water, starts vomiting water, or becomes very lethargic, she will need to see a vet right away. Best of luck.
