Cat Forum / Health and Behavior / March 2008Advice wanted- vomiting cat
Hello, This is my first time posting here. We have 3 cats, one is 12, one is 7, and one is 2. I am writing about the 2 year old. Her name is Aster and she's mixed but looks like a Blue Russian. She is thin to me (7-8 lbs) but is very small-framed too. Anyway, since she was a kitten, she often vomits after she eats. It seems to come in spurts, like she's fine for 2 weeks, then pukes every day for a week, then not for a month, etc. When she was about 6 months old she was tested for feiline aids & leukemia, and some other stuff, worms, etc. Nothing came up. The problem persisted, and 6 months later we went back to the vet, and again, clean bill of health. The vet said she probably just has a weak stomach. We've tried many different foods, and she absolutely refuses to eat wet food of any type. The one that she seems to do the best with, though I know it's not the best for them, is Deli Cat. I mean, we've just gotten to live with it, she has no other signs of being ill, has tons of energy, and never has a lack of appetite. We have done better by making sure she always has food available. She really eats a lot, and if she runs out and has to beg, then she really gulps down fast and almost guaranteed will vomit. The other cats NEVER are allowed in the room where her food is, so that isn't an issue. I should mention she hasn't been spayed, because the vets are afraid of her low weight it could be more risky putting her under. Just figured I'd throw this out if anybody else has a cat that just has a 'bad stomach'? I have acid reflux. Can cats have a similar condition? Are there antacids or something for a cat? It isn't hairballs either, she has short hair, and never any hair in the vomit. Any thoughts? Much thanks in advance!!!

One of them is a huge male who has barfed up after meals for years....nothing wrong with him medically but he gobbles his food as if someone would take it from him (fat chance: he is the dominant cat) and doesn't chew it much - I don't know how much they chew anyway; I don't think carnivores chew a lot - so maybe your cat is like him...a piggish eater? Like you say, the barfing goes on shortly after he eats. > Hello, > [quoted text clipped - 31 lines] > > Tom & Aster First never give an animal human medication unless told to do so by a vet. sounds like a food allergy see if the other food have wheat gluten in them if they do this could be " a cause " since Deli cat has corn meal gluten I use fancy feast, its a good life , all natural, deli cat my rumble has a vomiting problem like the one you described but his is mostly due to he over eats. I would get a food dispenser and set it for multiple times a day letting out only a certain amount to keep your from inhaling it. Also how much dos she weigh. I have had female cats that weighed 3-4 pounds when they were 8 months old go in for the spaying. PS seek a second opinion it never hurts She could have a hairball - and that is why this happens about once a month. She might be throwing up the food and not getting the hairball out. She also may be eating too much too fast. I would try feeding more often with less quantity and give her some Temptations for hairballs. Sharon On Feb 11, 12:50�pm, Twp1...@gmail.com wrote: > Hello, > [quoted text clipped - 31 lines] > > Tom & Aster My experience with this is that they do this when they eat too quickly. This often happens in multiple cat households. Continue to feed her separately, if you can accomplish that, it is a good thing and try to limit the times she actually runs out of food. Keep working on getting her to eat soft food, too. I think sometimes the dry foods have more of this sort of effect on cats than soft foods. I am not an expert, though, this is only my opinion, there are others on this board that are far more educated about this than I. Good luck ;-) One problem with dry food is that after eating it, the cat is likely to drink some water. Then the dry food expands and can cause the cat to vomit. My cats only get a little dry food at noon and bed time. The main meals are canned (Wellness). I put it down a little at a time so Tiger won't pig out (and vomit). Amber will eat her portion and walk away for a few minutes. Tiger doesn't get more until Amber returns for more. Since I am eating at the same time I have to get up several times to replenish their dishes. ---MIKE--- >>In the White Mountains of New Hampshire >> (44° 15' N - Elevation 1580') On Feb 11, 11:50 am, Twp1...@gmail.com wrote: > Hello, > [quoted text clipped - 31 lines] > > Tom & Aster Hi Tom: I have several good articles on my website dealing with special diets for cats and the health problems associated with them.

At least I'm glad to hear it's not a totally unheard of issue. I think some type of "dispenser" is best, cause feeding smaller amounts throughout the day and never letting the dish get empty helps. She used to have a sister who passed away at 1 year old, we **think** an aneurysm or just something and it was over in 30 seconds. But- at that time they didn't get fed separately, and the cat who passed on was fat. So- Aster is probably conditioned to eat fast out of fear of her food getting eaten. But we make it PHYSICALLY IMPOSSIBLE for the other cats to get her food. I've thought about the dry food expanding in water thing too. Makes sense, and we should give wet food another try and/or look for the gluten again. We had some wet foods that the vet gave us to try, (going back about a year or more) and she absolutely would not touch the stuff. Seeing as she was so skinny, we didn't want her not eating at all, and THEN the big pet food scare came out and I'm paranoid so I threw it all out. Didn't care if it was on the list or not, it went in the trash. I might as well ask this slightly gross question. Deli Cat is an orangish flavor, and the orangish-reddishness in the vomit is not a good thing on our rug, which is like a light beige. Any suggestions on what's the best way to get those stains out? We might very well rip all the carpet out anyway, but would a Rug Shampooer like you rent at the Supermarket get it out? We have "Spot Shot" and I think that stuff is actually taking the dye out of the carpet it's so darn potent! Thanks again!

Therein may lie the problem. She may be having an adverse reaction to the dye in the food. Its not unusual for a cat to have a reaction to a dye in the food . Try switching her over to a food that does not contain any dies. If that doesn't help, you might want to give Hill's Prescription Diet z/d a shot just as a test to rule out or rule in food hypersensitivity. . Z/d doesn't contain any dyes and the protein is split with water which reduces the molecular weight of the protein to below the immune response threshold of the cat. The cat's immune response threshold is ~10,000 daltons, and the average molecular weight of the proteins in z/d is ~ 6,000 daltons. If she still vomits after eating z/d, you might want to have some x-rays taken or ultrasounds done to rule out problems in the gastrointestinal tract. Best of luck.

Pick again" >"OK- I will take Movies for $400" All it means is that the weight of proteins in z/d are below the cat's immune threshold which simply means the cat's immune system doesn't detect the proteins and therefore can't develop an adverse reaction from them. BTW, its "z/d" not "p/d" - p/d is a pediatric diet. On second thought- I have a better idea--- Put your cat in a carrier. Then take her to your vet and ask him to find her a good home. When your vet asks you why you want to give her up, tell him its because you're too dumb to have a cat. > <Twp1...@gmail.com> wrote in message > [quoted text clipped - 60 lines] > > - Show quoted text - I know that 'pediatric diet' would be abbreviated pd. YOU typed Hill's Prescription Diet, which I abbreviated Hill's pd. You wrote a VERY scientific response which I appreciated and thanked you for, then had a bit of fun, cause I KNOW that most people would have no clue what that middle part meant. Sorry, I didn't know that a PhD and a complete lack of sense of humor was required to post here. That said who the f**k are you to call me dumb or tell me I'm too dumb to have a cat?

There's a difference. That's right! I wasn't joking. You asked for advice and I tried to help you help your cat and you made a joke about it. That wasn't very bright, now was it? Like I said-- for the 3rd time: maybe you should get to know people before you decide to joke around with them- especially about a cat's health issues.

If I didn't take my cat's health seriously, we wouldn't have been to the vet twice already, nor would I be posting here. I was joking about your scientific explanation that many cat owners who LOVE and CARE ABOUT their cats would scratch their heads at - but understand the 'what to do' part of your response. And I appreciate it. My joke wasn't intended for ANY reason than to get a chuckle. Sorry if it angered you. Obviously it did, you called me dumb. We can go back and forth forever...... Bottom line I think my joke and you calling me 'too dumb to own a cat' makes us even. I didn't come here to argue or make enemies, so let's say truce? I have and love cats, you have and love even MORE cats, it's all good, no?

FYI I understood Phil's "scientific" explanation you parodied but I am probably the only person in the world who has *never* seen this Jeopardy tv show and did not understand *your* parody at all. God's honest truth. I have a tip for you but its about your orange-stained carpets. There is now an under $4 manual Woolite-filled little cleaning pod for sale in grocery "cleaning products" aisles that has liquid, soft pad, and scratch plastic bristles which I have found to be highly efficient on *OLD* carpet stains....I use it on the aforementioned big male barfer-because-he's-a-piggish-gobbler cat's carpet barf stains.

Jeopardy, though you've never seen it probably have heard, is a game show with REALLY tough questions, like the majority of the questions are along the lines of the million dollar question on "Who wants to be a millionaire". Most folks could never get on it, and people sit at home watching with no clue, but something makes us love to watch it! As for the Woolite product, we have these "OLD" stains exactly as you say, so I can't wait to try it. Thanks again!

May be he would have been happier if I told him that if he wanted to stop the cat from barfing, just stop feeding the damned thing! Simple solution with an added benefit.. Not only won't he have to clean up barf and dye stains- he also wouldn't have to clean the litter box as much... Uh oh!

Several posts ago I apologized, and said let's stop it. Then you have to 'go there' again. But for some reason it's OK for you to joke about ABUSING a cat, but I make a joke about not knowing daltons and molecular weight, and you call me dumb and a jerk. Seriously, read this thread. You lashed out at me because you have 'no sense of humor' when it comes to cat's health. But a joke about starving a cat to death is OK for you to make. And I don't doubt for a second your knowledge or your love of cats. But I also don't doubt your ability to be hypocritical, and that YOU - not ME - sound like a jerk when you mention not feeding a cat at all as to 'not have to clean the litter box'. Don't get on my case for making a joke about molecular weight after you do that. Anybody who thinks that isn't hypocritical really is 'too dumb to own a cat' - or a computer. Re-read my post asking for us to stop the back and forth. OK, I tried to call a 'truce' & let by-gones be by-gones. . Now you're starting to whine. Chill out. > <Twp1...@gmail.com> wrote in message > [quoted text clipped - 3 lines] > > Now you're starting to whine. Chill out. AZ, we have had her to 2 different vets, and tested for everything including giardia. We had 2 BIG visits where they did every test in the book, but there were many check-up and follow-up visits in between. Most of it was early in the game, because we didn't want anything passed on to our other cats. But once all of THAT was ruled out, we then went back many times. How do the people in here find Iams to be? She wouldn't eat it when we first tried it, but the vet said if she could keep that down to go with it if she refused to eat the wet food and what he prescribed. Our other cats never get sick other than hairballs, but we'd just have to make sure if we keep them on Deli Cat that Aster doesn't "steal" their food! But - is Iams successful for anybody here?

A while back I posted his impressions of several types of canned food. I'll repost part of that review. - Begin Quote - IAMS Slices with Chicken in Gravy Slices covered in Real Broth: IAMS Turkey Slices in Gravy Slices covered in Real Broth: The liquid portion was quite tasty but the overall eating experience was marred by a number of inedible square chunks of some unknown origin that was included in the can for some stupid human reason. I, as is my Privilege, refused to eat whatever it was. This is the first time in my recollection that I have actually refused to eat *any* cat food related substance. * IAMS Slices with Beef in Gravy Slices covered in Real Broth: The solid squares in this flavor are closer to edible than in the other flavors. The gravy is quite good. ** IAMS Beef Entree Slow Cooked in Real Broth: IAMS Lamb & Rice Entree Slow Cooked in Real Broth: IAMS Chicken Entree Slow Cooked in Real Broth: The liquid portion was also quite good but the solid portion was barely edible. If that idiot slave of mine had put out more kibble I would not have bothered with eating the solid part. * - end quote - as always, YCMMV. >How do the people in here find Iams to be? She wouldn't eat it when >we first tried it, but the vet said if she could keep that down to go >with it if she refused to eat the wet food and what he prescribed. The shelter where I got my Gracie was feeding her Iams in a can when I brought her home. She was asthmatic and allergic, did better when I switched her food to Fancy Feast. Iams looks really gross, not appetizing even from a cat's perspective. To the guy with the barfing cat, may I suggest trying Hill's Science Diet Sensitive Stomach formula? I have a 17-year old male cat that has had IBS (Inflammatory Bowel Syndrome) for most of his life. I tried so many different foods, I can't even remember them all. Hypo-allergenic, lamb, duck, rabbit, etc. The ONLY food that stopped the vomiting and projectile (and I do mean PROJECTILE) diarrhea was the Hill's Sensitive Stomach food. If I want to give him wet food, the only thing that works is the canned Prescription Diet i/d. I don't work for Hill's - honest! But those two foods have made my life so much easier, my cat happier, and my carpets a lot cleaner!
