Gastroenteritis/Intestinal Inflammation

Gastroenteritis is intestinal upset in dogs and cats can be caused from dietary indiscretions, parasitic exposure, bacterial or viral infection and overgrowth or other systemic disease processes. Young kittens and pups are exposed to dietary changes at different stages of life and in different environments which can lead to an inflammatory problem in the digestive system. Lack of appetite, vomiting, diarrhea, dehydration and inability to thrive are some symptoms associated with this problem. Comprehensive exam, fecal parasite check and evaluation and symptomatic care are commonly instituted when intestinal symptoms occur. Pets of all ages can show symptoms consistent with Gastroenteritis syndromes and treatment varies depending on severity, duration, and response to therapy.
