Sick Kitty

My outdoor cat, Nero, has recently started losing a lot of weight, stopped cleaning himself, gotten diarrhea and has lost his appetite… I don’t know what’s wrong with him or what it might be… I am worried it is some kind of parasite that can spread to humans and/or other animals.

I would greatly appreciate any input that can be offered.

    First thing get him in the house as soon as possible. Quarantine him in a crate inside a room by himself and then send him to the vet as soon as possible. This could be a number of diffrent things but what ever it is I know for a fact that you can’t catch it but other animals might be able. Get Nero to a vet as soon as possible and please keep him inside the house!

    Goodluck!
