Help - Hermes Throwing Up

[Anikaca77]

Hermes just turned 1 on Monday and today when I woke up there was a bunch of cat vomit on the floor and I have 5 cats so I had to figure out who was throwing up but as soon as Hermes ate he threw up.

He has thrown up now 4 times today and it's after he eats.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated. I'm going to take him to the vets tomorrow hopefully I can get in.

I would be very worried that Hermes has ingested something OR that he is obstructed!! All that vomiting can lead to dehydration, not a good thing!! TO THE VET!!!!! Please let us know how things turn out!!! GOOD LUCK!! And prayers for Hermes...

I would not give him anymore food today, let his tummy settle down.
Leave water out for him to drink.
Otherwise how is he acting?

He's acting fine otherwise...a little sluggish..he doesn't understand throwing up really since this is his first time...he just runs and throws up and keeps running while vomiting and of course that means it's all over the house....

I just gave him a little kitten chow...I normally feed him Purina Cat Chow Indoor Formula but I figured if I gave him some of his baby food maybe that would settle his tummy.

So far no puke.

Well now make that 5 times he's thrown up.

I'm not sure how to make him more comfortable for the rest of today.

STOP FEEDING HIM (sorry for shouting) but his tummy needs to rest. You keep feeding him whatever and he is going to puke it up. Your going to dehydrate him and that's life threating.

After 24 hrs of no food, start slowly with cooked rice & hamburger (cooked) mixture.
Rice & hamburger are kind to tummys. Small portions.
