My cat is vomiting, dehydrated, fast heart, not eating. What to do?

Hi there! Thanks for using Boop by Petco! I definitely understand your concern. Vomiting and inappetence are concerning symptoms as they could occur with things like a gastrointestinal obstruction, pancreatitis, inflammatory bowel disease, dietary indiscretion, among many other possibilities. The fact that he is also breathing fast is also concerning. I recommend that you have Pedrito evaluated by a veterinarian for further assessment and treatment. Hoping for a speedy recovery!

I'm sorry to hear that Lil One is vomiting so frequently. This is a serious problem as he will become dehydrated like you mentioned. He needs to see his veterinarian. He could have eaten a foreign object such as a piece of string or toy that is now blocking his intestines. If that is not the case, he could have an internal problem such as kidney or thyroid disease. He will likely need bloodwork, a urinalysis and possibly x-rays. Continue to offer him small amounts of water frequently to help keep him hydrated. I hope this helps. Good luck!

Thanks for using Boop by Petco! Vomiting and inappetence can occur from many conditions such as foreign body ingestion and obstruction, pancreatitis, gastroenteritis, dietary indiscretion, among other possibilities. I recommend that you have Tigger evaluated by a veterinarian for further assessment and treatment as soon as possible as I am afraid that he is becoming dehydrated. This will likely require bloodwork and abdominal imaging in terms of diagnostics. Treatment would be based on findings. At the very least your veterinarian could start him on medications to make him feel better. In the meantime, keep water available at all times to try to prevent dehydration. Good luck and have a good day!

It sounds like poor Piggy is sick, and it could be due to the worms, a GI illness, eating something rotten, or a foreign body. When a kitten is vomiting a lot, is dehydrated, and feels like it has a fever, this is a medical emergency that requires immediate vet care. Please take her into an ER vet clinic; if there isn't one in your area, there will be a vet on call for emergencies. The information to reach that vet is found on a clinic's answering machine or website. Best of luck.

It sounds as this cat is suffering from a gastrointestinal condition, possibly an infection. it could also be due to ingestion of a foreign body material. i would recommend taking him to the vet the first chance you get, he will need to be checked first, if the vet thinks it's a simple gastrointestinal infection he will need an anti vomiting injection, antibiotics and a special food for a few days in order to get better.

If he was recently at the vet for vomiting, and now is not eating or drinking anything, he should be seen again as this would make me concerned about the possibility of a foreign body, or pancreatitis, which would require additional therapy. If your vet didn't do x-rays or bloodwork at the previous appointment it's time to make sure there's nothing more serious going on. However, since your vet just saw Iron I would start by giving them a call with an update, in case they have other input based on their exam findings. Hope this helps and he feels better soon!

Hypothermic kittens can be much more sick than they let on. Vomiting can be caused by many things, including hairballs, food allergy, eating too fast, GI blockage, intestinal parasites, IBD, systemic disease (liver, kidney, pancreas, diabetes), among others. If the vomiting happens for more than 24 hours, or if Tom does not eat in that time, he needs to see a vet immediately. Continue to encourage him to drink water and eat canned cat food. You can use a heating pad on the low setting to help warm him up, but check often that it is not too hot as it is quite easy to burn their skin. You can leave the heating pad where he can sit on it, but if he moves away do not force him to go back.

Acute vomiting and diarrhea, especially with poor appetite and lethargy, are certainly cause for concern. This could be caused by an infection, something stuck in Max's intestines, or a metabolic problem. At the veterinarian, they will examine him and probably take x-rays and run some lab work to look for the underlying cause of Max's issues. I wouldn't wait very long to go to the vet since Max is so young and small and so can become dehydrated quickly. See if you can get in for an exam today.

I'm sorry to hear that Louie isn't feeling well! Profuse vomiting and a loss of appetite in a young cat are most suspicious for either a foreign body intestinal obstruction, parasites or virus. Due to the likelihood of dehydration with this much vomiting and possible obstruction, I recommend taking Louie to his vet fairly urgently for evaluation. He will likely need abdominal x-rays and may need IV fluids or surgery if foreign material is suspected in his intestines. I hope that all goes well!

I'm sorry to hear that Eggy has been vomiting and seeming fussy. In a young cat with sudden vomiting, fussy/abnormal behavior and decreased drinking, she may have a foreign body intestinal obstruction, virus, parasites, pancreatitis, or inflammatory bowel disease leading to her issues. Since she is not drinking well and continuing to vomit, it is likely that she has become dehydrated, so now is the time to take her to the emergency vet. The vet will examine her, perform any necessary diagnostic testing (likely including blood tests and x-rays), and then determine the best course of treatment. I hope this helps and that Eggy feels better soon!
