My female cat is vomiting, constipated, and has vaginal discharge.

Updated on September 23rd, 2025

Pet's info: Cat | Turkish Van | Female | 11.023 lbs

My cat has been sick from last 2 week in exact , first she started vomiting which looked like watery n sticky ,which she did more than at least 10 times in one day . After that day she was weak and tired for 2 or 3 days, she was passing stool at that time but after that she became active but she became constipated ( passes stool once in 2 or 3 days for now ,this is happening for a week). Recently I found out she kept on grooming her vagina/urinary tract. It looked swallen and some pus/discharge

Hi, thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! Poor Sweety!

If Sweety didn't eat for several days or isn't eating normally she will pass less stool which doesn't necessarily mean she is constipated. If Sweety is not spayed then I would be very concerned that she has a uterine infection (pyometra) which requires immediate Veterinary care and surgery to remove the infected uterus. This is a life threatening condition. Other possibilities is a urinary tract infection which also require a Vet exam and analysis of her urine and antibiotics.

I recommend that Sweety sees a Vet today. I hope this helps and I wish Sweety a speedy recovery!
