MY CAT
OK, my cat, of about 8 years old, had quite a bit of diarrhea on my rug and well, what looks like throw up, on my sister's rug. The "throw up" looks like V8 Juice, only very, very thin-and more orange. I gave my cat some milk this morning-but it was only a little splash. I've given him milk before & he didn't have any after affects. He seemed to be in general good health, with a few minor glitches [such as laziness-when he never has been before], but after this happened, I started to question his health. I'm asking, BEFORE I GO TO THE VET, what you guys think it is? Is it something I should be worried about?
Please keep in mind, that this is my baby!

Like Theymos said cats and milk do not go well together. I gave some to my grandcat once and he
got diarrhea bad too. So all those feeding kitty milk myths are wrong.
As for red vomit...are you feeding him red food? I ask because my pup got into the older dogs moist and meaty dog food and threw up red.
IF you feed your cat moist canned cat food or cat food in one of those pouches that have gravy in them, find your local news website and get the list of recalled cat food. Many brands have been found to contain rat poison. This would be a medical emergency for your pet.

Cat's are lactose intolerant. They can't digest milk, it makes them sick. It sounds like it's more serious than that, though, so I'd take it to the vet.
