So frustrated - Ripley throws up a lot but not sick - HELP!

[Felicia's Mom]

That sounds like Felicia. She used to eat and throw up almost every time I fed her. She is better now; she is fed smaller portions, the dish is raised, and I changed brands of wet food.

I also keep her from drinking water right after she eats. This may not cause vomiting, but there is a lot more of it to clean up.

She is brushed every day too.

T&P,
They make a pill cutter! I use it for Tex...and it worked fine on the 1/4 tab pepcids...since that is what he used to be on.

Also, a dab of plain yougart first thing, then wait a few minutes before feeding, also seems to help.

I only time I recall my Lucy ever throwing up was when she would chase wasps and get stung in her mouth - this would always make her very sick, but she never got sick because of food. Gigi never got sick unless I gave her whiskas with gravy. For a very long time now I have given a mixture of cooked fresh meat and fish, some wet and dried cat foods (without preservatives/additives). Plus also some cooked vegetables. I also put water on some of their food. Maybe I have just been very lucky!

We switched to Nutro food, and rarely have this problem now. I swear by it.

Thanks everyone!

You've given me a lot of helpful insight and advice. Plus I don't feel like the only person in the world constantly cleaning cat yak.
