throwing-up

1085681 tn?1280176627 My cat occasionally would eat too much or not chew her food well enough and then she would throw up. Just occasionally though. But recently she started (she's done it twice now) throwing up and throwing up and throwing up. I mean it'll be food at first and then after a while it's just liquid. I switched her food to a Purina One Sensitive Systems and she stopped doing it and hadn't thrown up at all since...until the other night.
203342 tn?1328737207 I'm trying to figure out what's going on here. Misha was put on antibiotics about a month ago for sneezing. She started throwing up then so I figured it was the antibiotics. I finished them up and it did seem to help the sneezing. However, she's still throwing up on a daily basis.
1513651 tn?1290387289 Because he had worms so bad the vet wants to give him another treatment of the Revolution, He is on dry cat food and water. He begs for food all the time and we cannot leave food out on the counter as he is (dumpster diving) here in the kitchen. I am very concerned about the throwing up. Do you think this will end eventually?
Avatar n tn About a week ago ( this is also about the time she was rolling around on her stomache and whining) she started throwing up piles and piles of throw up. I tried giving her peptobismol but all that did was make it watery. So I took her food away and gave her a different kind of food (canned) and it seemed to help, she gobbled it right up but I only think it was because she was starving,like I said she is very picky and she was able to keep it down!.
203342 tn?1328737207 But, my pudgy kitty seems to be just fine with my not leaving dry food out for her, as long as I feed her the canned food twice a day.
Avatar n tn My cat is doing the same thing and i have had him for eight years and have not changed his food or litter. I have started him on ear mite medication and gave him a flea dip just in case that seems to be helping but we will see he still has another 5 days to go with the ear mite treatment. also just some added info about him, he is an indoor cat I did watch a friend's cat for a couple of days and I think thats where it came from. Has your cat been to or around anything he normally isn't?
Avatar f tn He seemed fine for awhile and now his stool is harder than it ever was but he is throwing up again here and there. I think it is the food...but what kind of food can I get to see if it helps? Any suggestions what to get a cat who has a digestive problem?
747613 tn?1233526730 and her throw up contained hard cat food that she seemed to not have chewed properly and it also contained some kitty grass that we had bought for her and the other cats a few days ago. She was her playful self after wards. Again she threw up at about 12:00 a.m. but it was like a clear mucous and she threw that up in about 3 different spots of the bedroom and she threw up some of the clear mucous again at about 12:30a.m. after all that she seems sad and she'll walk around but she wont play.
Avatar m tn Hello, My cat has been throwing up a brown very watery liquid for the past few days. He will go maybe a whole day and not throw up at all but then overnight we find that he's thrown up 4 or 5 times. He still drinks his water and eats his food and seems his normal self but i'm worried there might be something else wrong. Oh, this morning in his vomit was a lot of little white pecks maybe a little larger than grains of salt or sugar. Thnx any help would be appreciated.
Avatar f tn s vomiting. You have to brush your cat a lot. If you do not brush your cat daily, your cat will keep throwing up. Gotta help the little one. Also, I would add fiber to his diet. Fiber is key to prevent hairballs. Fiber takes out anything the body cannot make use of, and so it comes out in the stool, in the litter box, not on the floow through your cat's mouth. That's what I do to prevent hairballs in both my cats and it has worked so far. I see a lot of hair in the stool every day.
Avatar n tn My cat has been throwing up since this afternoon, she is quite old (and has suffered with ear problems for a long time, she went to the vet yesterday for a check up on her ear). I have never seen her throw up this much and it is worrying me that something is wrong, she just seems to be throwing up a white foam(?) liquid and can't keep any food down. She keeps trying to moisture her mouth and I can tell she is having difficulty swallowing/has a sore throat now(?
Avatar n tn My cat has been throwing up rather frequently as of late. She's never been one to do so [except the occasional hairball. But we're talking once a year for that] It's often almost a lime green colour and has the consistency of pudding; Maybe not quite as thick but very close. Other times, it's more light green with chunks of food. She's thrown up three times today but I've no clue if it's plants that she's eating or if she's sick.
Avatar n tn I havea 2 year old shih tzu and I also have a cat. My dog use to get into the cat food and she would vomit yellow bile. The vet said that it was from ger eating the cat food. The cat food is very high in fat and isn't good for the dog. The vet suggested I get some chicken and rice wet food and feed it to her if she pukes again or I catch her in the cat food. It helped and she doesn't puke anymore.
Avatar f tn She isn't throwing up anymore.On the previous food she was , but on her new diet she isn't. What I meant, is it ok that she's losing weight on the new food?
596105 tn?1314580333 I wouldn't stress about it yet. Does Oliver seem fine other than the throwing up? Cats will sometimes throw up 2 or 3 times a week-many times it's a hairball. They sell hairball remedies everywhere. Or, petroleum jelly(that's the main ingredient in these remedies). If you give him petroleum jelly-human formula-make sure that you read the ingredients. You ONLY want it to say petroleum or petrolatum. If it has any other ingredient do not use it.
Avatar n tn The past 2 days her appetite has gone down and today she began throwing up a bit this morning but only her food that she ate. Other than that she seems fine, running around, attacking my older cat :)...She was pretty crazy (her normal self) for the first few days after surgery despite our best efforts to "keep her calm" and "no running, jumping etc" She has definitely slowed down in the past 2 days but isn't "acting sick" other than the vomiting.
Avatar m tn And before we put her on a dietary kind of cat food, she peeing blood. She also has been throwing up lately. But only once or twice a week. I don't understand what's wrong with her.
6726276 tn?1421126668 If the food is coming out undigested (indicating it has only been a very short time in her digestive tract as opposed to throwing up digested food), she might have, or have had, a blockage of some kind. Could definitely be a hairball, but if she likes to play with cardboard, it could be a piece of cardboard. Hairball remedies are usually some kind of laxative like petroleum jelly mixed with malt for flavor, to stick to the hairball and glide it down.
687665 tn?1227103240 She was acting like something was after or on her. Then thats when she stopped and started throwing up but this time it was more watery and clear but had the blood in with it.She stays in a room with 2 gates so she has not gotton to any chemicals or poisions. She is not around any other dogs. She is up to date on all her shots. She takes a monthly worm pill, Interceptor. I just gave her the Interceptor 11-14-08. Do you know what could be making her sick?
Avatar n tn s a long hair tabby so the throwing up once or twice every 2-3 weeks is pretty normal for her in my opinion. Some times she goes even longer 4-7 weeks without vomiting. And when she does vomit, it is defenetly a big, fat hair ball. with some... food.. but not much. Yesterday, and today when she threw up she had hairball in her vomit but a lot more food than usual. I'm positive my mom didn't give her anything new, unless she found something and ate it, that my mom wasn't aware of.
Avatar m tn My 2 year old cat has been throwing up about once a day for the past week. Other than throwing up, she acts normally, she is eating and drinking normally. The throw up is a brown liquid and she usually throws up during the night as we find it when we get up in the mornings. There is no smell to the vomit. Is this something serious?
