My cat throws up after eating sometimes,Its like she has buhlemia.I dont know if shes eatingtoo much, or if she want attention?She is regular size,not fat or losing weight and I'm a little stumped.It seems like other peoples felines barf but from all sorts of things...some are hairballs...some due to eating bugs or whatever.Mine just does it out of the blue,and its all food.She is a very emotional feline and often hisses at others(including cats).I'm just wondering if anyone has this happen to them??

Maybe she just eats too fast? It could also be an intolerance to something in the food. Some cats seem to have sensitive stomaches. ------------------ [This message has been edited by nern (edited 11-22-2003).] IP: Logged |

Hi. She may be allergic to something in the food, or it may be to 'harsh' for her. I would consult with your vet to see what they recommend. She may need a special diet.  Good Luck!IP: Logged |

My cat does this. My husband will feed her before leaving for work and then I get up shortly after. My cat will wolf down her food, in an attempt to be fed again. She thinks if her dish is empty, it will apear as though she has not been fed. We have trained her now that when she eats she needs to take a break. I would have her checked out at the vet just in case, as my cat is also allergic to chicken. We found that out last year. That also contributes to the vomitting. IP: Logged |

My youngest cat used to do this, he had been a stray and wasn't used to the amount of food that was available to him, we leave dry food down all day as we have two other cats and they were used to having food for them to nibble at all day. H ewas alos very underweight having just got over being a stray from a kitten and having the worst cat flu I have ever seen. He would go to the dry food bowl eat everything in it and then when it was filled up for the other cats he would promptly eat that too, not to mention go through the kitchen bin and eat everything he could from there too! He would then be sick possibly 10 or 11 times and start the process all over again. So really what it came down to in the end was feeding him little and often so he got the message that there would always be food if he was hungry and so he didn't have to ram it down his throat as quick as he could incase there wasn't going to be anymore. We have now got him down to two meals a day with dry food around when he wants it. He has also been taught to eat only out of his bowl, by clapping at him whenever he goes to the others bowls, it was a long process but he hasn't been sick for months, save all the feathers he keeps bringing up from eating birds! Even if your cat isn't a stray if they aren't used to the fact there is generous amounts of food to be had they may over eat. Its fairly unusual for a cat who is a healthy weight to do this, as they self regulate very well, but not impossible. I suppose my advice is just to give your cat food a little bit at a time, maybe feed him for or five times a day but only with a spoonful of food. IP: Logged |
