Poor Tintu. Something is causing him to have an upset stomach. There are a multitude of reasons for this including gastroenteritis, dietary indiscretion, infection, parasites, pancreatitis, etc. I would recommend fasting him for 8 hours and then starting a bland diet such as boiled chicken and rice. Offer him plenty of water to keep him hydrated and take him out to the potty frequently. If his diarrhea does not resolve by tomorrow, he should be seen by a veterinarian.
