I'm sorry Gab is sick! Definitely continue to give him the medication as prescribed by his vet. Keep in mind that being sick from liver problems can also lead to vomiting. His nose being wet is normal, and his gums should be pink. It is concerning that he is vomiting his cat food, but please do not give him raw chicken. That could also contribute to the vomiting in that it can and does upset a cat's stomach. It's fine that he has some boiled white meat chicken (no bones), and you can try feeding him that for a couple of days to see if that helps with the vomiting. If it does stop, then slowly add back in his normal diet. Make sure Gab is getting a kitten formulated food, as he needs higher amounts of calcium, protein, and calories to support his growth, and a kitten food will provide that for him. I hope this helps!
