What to do if my cat is throwing up bile for 3 days straight?

Question

Hi there! I'm going on day 3 of my cat projectile vomiting and he just vomited some bile. I live in a town with no vet but can take him to one on Monday if i need to. What do you suggest i try at home first? Hes a pukey boy regularily as he is long haired but ive never seen it this frequent. His mood is completely normal, as is his energy. His vomiting seems mostly around meal time and I've already switched up his diet and give him smaller portions 3 times a day. Thanks for any help!

Hi, thanks for using PetCoach! Poor Mau! With cats there isn't much at home care that can be done for excessive vomiting. Due cat's extreme sensitivity to human medications there is nothing safe to give him. I would try fasting him for 12-24 hours, add in a hairball medication ( https://www.drsfostersmith.com/product/prod_display.cfm?pcatid=19963 ). Then I would restart feeding him as you have been, small frequent meals. Ideally he needs to see a Vet Monday due to the length of vomiting he is having. Causes of vomiting are: intestinal parasites, foreign body, dietary indiscretion, toxin ingestion, IBD, food allergies, pancreatitis. I hope this helps and I wish Mau the best!
