Do cats die from diarrhea?

Question

i had a baby cat, black with blue eyes, OOH SO CUTE. it started with diarrhea, i woke up and it was dead =[. I have no place to burry it, wat should i do?

Answer 1

Omg hunny, I'm so sorry!  Poor kitty.  Yes, they can definitely die from diarrhea.  Diarrhea in kittens is especially bad, and once the diarrhea starts they become dehydrated.  If you're not able to get them re-hydrated soon enough, they can die.  If you have some family with a yard, maybe they'll let you bury her there.  Otherwise, maybe a veterinarian or shelter may be albe to do something with her.  When my puppy died, the vet asked if we wanted them to dispose of her.  Again, so sorry...

Answer 2

awl.

i dont know about that but i heard pulling a tail of a cat makes it have diarrhea but u have to pull hard

Answer 3

Well cats die from what causes the diarrhea.  Depending on how small the kitten was, it's temperature probably got too low in the night, since a cat's temp. is supposed to be around 101.5.  I have a kitten and about a month ago his temp. was really low because he had a cold and almost died.  He also had diarrhea as a symptom.  As to what to do with the body, take it to the vet.

Answer 4

YES. Any animal can possibly die from having diarrhea. It dehydrates (where do you think all that liquid comes from?). Of course, just one day wouldn't do it, it'd have to be going on for quite a while. And usually it is a symptom of a bigger problem rather than the cause. Could your kitten have eaten something poisonous? If you have other animals, I would check around to make sure there isn't a cabinet with chemicals or something that they can get into.

There is no where near you that you could bury the poor thing? You don't have any friends or relatives that would let you bury her in their yard? Then try calling your local animal shelter or humane society and ask them about your options.

Good luck!

Answer 5

yes diarrhea can and will cause dehydration, what do you mean you have no place to burry it? no yard ? call your local animal control or police dept they can tell you what to do,

Answer 6

No cats do not die from diarrhea that is just means that they ate something that their stomach could not handle.  So maybe it ate something that is was allergic to and it died from that but it did not die from diarrhea.  

Sorry for the passing away of the kitty(s).
