I need some help. My cat for pretty much as as long as I've had him has had a problem with puking. Like pretty decent power puking. It happens maybe twice a week. Generally I keep him on the same food but i've switched him to different stuff before because I though maybe it was the old food that was making him sick. He's about 9 years old now. Lives with two dogs but isn't really bothered by them. He is an outside cat if that helps at all, but hes never been one for killing and eating wild animals (or if he is he leaves no evidence of it at all). Any idea what could be causing the puking. Is it just his stomach? hes not unhealthy aside from that. pretty active, very affectionate. Very nice fur coat. Your thoughts?Pic related, he just woke up.
I'm sure some of you, if not all, are thinking just take him to the vet. However theres only one around here and they are incredibly expensive. They one charged me 90 dollars to get rid of a used syringe.
Does he eat too fast?
>>239217Maybe. if he is, is there any real way to cure that? I dont think he will listen to me telling him to slow down.
>>239217>>239219My cat sometimes eats too fast and pukes up a tube of semi-digested food. I don't think there's much you can do except feed him less. Like maybe feed him little snacks throughout the day.
>>239221i'll give it a shot
>>239219Does he tend to eat his dry food really quickly, then drink the water afterwards? That causes the food to expand, which causes puking.
give him half his dinner, wait an hour, give other halfnot overloaded stomach=less barf=win
>>239223he does eat the dry food kinda quickly but doesnt so much go for the water right afterwards.
