When my cat Yasha is hungry or we forget to feed him. For some reason he glares at my sister and when she has her back turned he atacks!But the problem is he is feed 3 or 4 times a day.Each time he eats he eats he is still hungry...Well actually he's always hungry.
When I feed him a lot!After eating he always vomits. He doesent poop alot.Is that bad? He is still skiny not fat at all.Last week he could not poop. He had a peice of baloni sticking out of his bottom.Well I think it was baloni...So I puled it out. Does my cat have some kind of diseas?

Hello. Exactly how much food is a lot? How much dry or soft food, or both are you feeding him per day?

as a general rule.... cats are always hungry.

try to cut down his food to 2 main meals a day (some people only give one) at specific times. that way they know that they can anticipate their meal without worry of going hungry.

then perhaps he will stop feeling insecure as to whether or not he would be fed or not.

why he targets your sister.... i don't know...

Sounds like he is just eating too fast and its causing him to vomit.
How old is your cat? About how much does he weigh? You might possibly be under feeding him (depending on his size, activity level and age). If he is skinny and so hungry all the time that he eats too fast you can probably give him a little more food per day without causing an excessive weight gain.
