Vomiting of cats
Common Questions and Answers about Vomiting of cats
vomiting
first of all...cats aren't evil...he needs to see a Vet, he is obviously having some stomach issues, perhaps the food does not agree with him, and the inappropriate elimination is likely due to crystals in his bladder that are very painful and he is trying to tell you he hurts!!!! these are caused by feeding dry food and are most common in male cats especially older ones.
Place a small amount of olive oil or butter on the capsule to make it slide more easily down your cats throat to help with administration.
Probiotics and ginger capsules are widely available over the counter at health food stores and online as human products. The dose for probiotics for your cat is 1/8 of a human dose twice daily. Ginger and probiotics can be combined safely.
I know that if the vomiting started it could be a sign of her cancer returning, but she has no other symptoms at all. She's actually gained some weight and has a lot of energy. Should I be concerned and take her to a vet immediately? Or should I watch her for a little while longer before making an appointment?
I hesitate to put her thru chemo again since it turned her skin almost black and she was so nauseous - barely ate anything. Could there be any other cause for the vomiting?
Julia, hi....
It's time to take your kitty to the vet. Vomiting for 48hrs means your boy is now dehydrated. He is probably not eating either which is even worse. This is an Emergency.
The treats didn't happen to be "Temptations" were they? These treats have caused a lot of issues for cats when given only a few a day much less 'way too many'. It doesn't really matter at this point, vomiting for so long, your kitty needs to see a vet ASAP.
s vomited several times, so we cut back on the Atopica and only used Triamciniolene. The vomiting returned, so she is only taking Atopica, after which she agaom vomited. I'm told San Ren Tang may cause the remission of Pemphegus. Please help...I adore this cat.
ve never had a problem, none of the cats are over weight, I was taught that cats are snackers and know when to stop eating. Both of my female cats never have this problem so there must be a reason why Peetrie (my male cat) is over eating. The only thing I can come up with is the dog, he hates our dog, I don't think its the other cats, he loves his little sisters and always protects them. He bullies one of them but never hurts her. He seems to just enjoy scaring her.
Here is what Mrs_Savas would tell you. Cats know what they’re doing. When cats are being fed a type of food that lacks certain nutrients, they will eat nonstop to try to find what they lack. Their bodies are looking for THAT specific nutrient they need to feel satisfied. It is a strong survival instinct. Of course, they usually gain weight because of the grains in the food.
What would I say? I’d say I agree with Mrs_Savas.
The cat has an appetite and was eating for about 4 days without any vomiting, and finally had a solid stool. Then all of a sudden he vomited over the weekend again and then on Monday he vomited in 4 different spots of the house. He has energy and a huge appetite. Can he be having these problems from overeating?
After living in this apartment for about 9 years we were getting evicted, which meant that we had to get rid of our three cats that we had had for closer to 10 years. One of the cats was /my/ cat that I loved very much and I still get a bit weepy thinking about her. But it was late June that we were told that we had to leave our apartment by the end of July/beginning of August, and not having a great deal of money the entire month was very stressful for me and the rest of my family.
Hi there,
I just found a cracked shell of a 400 mg Ibuprofen tablet (Advil) on the floor. Seems one of my cats may have chewed on it. Not sure if any was ingested. Also not sure when this took place, but I vacuumed yesterday so probably in the last few hours. They have been eating and seem fine, no vomiting or diarrhea. They are sleeping right now but do react when I prod them.
They are both 2 years old, and very small, likely 2-3 pounds each.
Help! I am at my wits end with one of my cats. He is a 3 year old male inside cat. We adopted him from a shelter when he was 8 weeks old. First, the vomiting issue. Since he was small, he has vomited on a regular basis. He will vomit once a day, for three or four days and then stop for a week or two and then start the cycle all over again. His vomiting can be at any time. He could be sleeping and jump up and vomit or it could be while he is playing.
Out of curiosity why have you
allowed this vomiting to go on for 6-9 months. If this were my cat,
and my cat was vomiting after each meal, you better believe I would
have visited my vet a long time ago. Purina at best is not a good quality
food. She probably has lost weight but you just don't see it. I would
suggest making an appointment and getting her to your vet as soon
as possible. Vomiting after a meal for such a long time is not good.
About a month ago, my 12 year old diabetic cat, Oreo, was hospitalized (vet and hospital on same premises) because he was vomiting after he ate. It was the color of his DM Purina food. Vet felt he should be hospitalized. He was in hospital for 4 days, on iv, xrays, blood work, etc. They couldn't find anything. The vet said he never vomited. Cost - close to $2,000 for 4 days for procedures and boarding.
I know a lot of us have older cats so I started this thread for info predominately relevant to them. I have 3. Zylo is 14, Zany is 12, and Zena is 11. Lately, Zylo has not been doing so well. We have had him since he was about 8 months old and he has always been a very healthy cat. He originally found us as a stray and as a result he has been an indoor/outdoor cat all of his life. Our other two are strictly indoor.
He has always been very sensitive and has vomited here and there as have a lot of my cats. He is very sensitive to meds and often vomits from them. He is fiv pos and has been very healthy overall. He is thin and in great shape. I give him benebac everyday.
I'm wondering if you think he may have pancreatitis. I want to do an ipl test and I'm wondering what treatments to do if so.
I have ruled out worms for that reason, he has none, and ive never known of anything else to cause this. His diet is the same as my other 3 cats, and they do fine.
