I have a lactating bitch named Aluma with one week old puppies. She started having bloody diarrhea 24 hours ago, and I suspect it's due to a new bag of dog food. Can she be given metronidazole 250 mg, and how will it affect her and her puppies? Additionally, what should she be fed during this time?

My puppy, Durban, is acting lethargic, running a fever, and vomited some gunk after I was gone for an hour and a half. She didn't eat much dinner last night or this morning, and her nose and armpits are warm. Could she have eaten something unusual? What should I do?

My 1-year-old pit bull, Buddy, has been throwing up dog food every night for the past 5 days, has lost a lot of weight, and his eyes are red. He needs shots and has been chewing on various items. What could be causing this and what should I do?

I have a 17-year-old male cat named Scampy with high blood sugar (229) and thyroid issues, currently on methimazole and Lantus insulin. He stopped eating, became dehydrated, and is very lethargic. The vet prescribed 100 mL of fluid twice daily and 1 unit of Lantus insulin once daily. I suspect kidney failure and am concerned about the amount of fluids being administered. What should I do to manage his condition and ensure he gets the appropriate care?
