My cat only vomits dry food sometimes. Is he sick or allergic?

Question

My cat has been vomiting a lot lately. We give him wet and dry food but so far he has only thrown up the dry food. He doesn't vomit every time we feed him dry food though. We have also been feeding him this type of food since he was a baby. Is my cat sick? Pet's info: Cat | American Shorthair | Male | neutered | 10 lbs

Hi there and thank you for your question on Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! Vomiting can be a sign of a health condition, especially if it is happening more frequently. It can be a sign of a wide variety of health conditions so it is hard to say exactly what the problem is without examining Tiger first. Kidney or liver disease can cause nausea as can certain gastrointestinal disorders such as IBD or food allergies. Certain cancers can cause vomiting as well. My best advise is for you to take Tiger to see his veterinarian for an exam and blood work to determine if there is anything serious causing the vomiting. I hope this helps!
