Question

I'll make this as short as possible. 25/9/17 - discharge from ward, diagnosed to have carpal hyperextension. Got home, vomitted right after. Seems active despite vomiting. 2/10/17 - cat seems to be using the injured leg more often. On evening, cat didnt eat dinner. 3/10/17 - Cat still doesnt want to eat, vomitted yellow liquid right after. Cat seems lethargic and less active. Info: No change in diet, indoor 7 months kitten, doesnt want to drink nor eat since 2/10/17 Please help. Pet's info: Cat | Domestic Shorthair | Male | unneutered | 4 lbs

Hi, thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! Poor Mochi! She is adorable! I have a few questions, is Mochi on any medications? If so, what are they. Medications can make cats vomit. Or the medications she was given while at the Vet hospital. I recommend stopping any oral medications you are giving and call the Veterinarian in charge of Mochi's care. If she is not on any medication I still think you should call to discuss if any medication she was given the end of Sept could be upsetting her stomach. If this isn't mediated related I wouldn't allow too many days tog o by before having her rechecked. Other causes of vomiting are: viral or bacterial infections, pancreatitis, intestinal inflammation, foreign body ingestion (some thing is stuck), food allergy or intolerance, ate something that is disagreeing with her. I hope this helps in some way. I wish Mochi a speedy recovery!
