Hi there, I just wanted to see if anyone else has a similar problem.
Milo Buttercups sphynx, has not been himself latley, he seems to be sleeping more. I had noticed a few times in the past week and half that one of the cats had been throwing up... Not hairballs or bile, but there actuall food.
I have been assumng it was milo but not sure as we do have 5 cats.
Talked to a local vet tech who runs a pet food store and she suggested changing foods to nutram sensitive stomach for cats. Which i did, so all 5 are on it(friggin expensive) arghhhh
Anyhow, yesterday, i actually caught milo throwing up, so called the vet right away and got him seen. He also pooped so i took that with me.
The stool sample came back negative... They have done some blood work and are awaiting the results.
The vet thinks it may be a inflamed digestive problem (probably saying this wrong)..... Or that he may have eaten something that he shoudnt have ie: an object, that is floating around in his tummy.
We are hoping the blood work comes back all normal. Next step I guess would be xrays....
Has anyone had this problem? The vet says cats can just develop a digestive problem like this
Ps. i posted this in the wrong area before, think....
