Cat getting sick & has diarrhea

    Hi guys
    i have a female cat, she is approx a year and a half.
    woke up this morning and there was little puddles of sick and diarrhea everywhere. She's a house cat and hasn't been out, the only thing she ate(that she wouldn't normally eat) was some chicken that was left over on a breast.
    She's really quiet and clingy this morning and I don't know what to do.
    Should I fast her for the next 24hrs with just water or I saw baby food being advised on other sites.
    Any advise appreciated.

    I think you need to get her to a vet.

    There are emergency 24 hour vets in Dublin, if that's any use.

    Oh I just saw the post above mine - how can people be so insensitive?

    I would get her to a vet asap, cats have small little bodies, and the fact she has both vomiting and diarrhoea she will dehydrate extremely fast.

    Just water for 24 hrs if you cant find a vet until tomorrow. But I am hoping at this point you have manged to get someone to look at her.
