What to do when my senior cat with kidney disease is vomiting & has diarrhea?

Question

My cat is about 15, with a history of renal disease. She is on a prescription diet. Tonite she started vomiting everything, now it is a smelly yellow/brown emitus. Her last stool was 1\2 regular brown 1\2 soft yelowish/brown diarrhea. She also appears to have pain in her stomach, she growls when I touch her belly. What can I do until I can get her to the vet in the morning? Pet's info: Cat | Mixed Breed | Female | spayed | 12 lbs

These signs might be compatible with a pancreatic disease (usually an inflammation). Often gastrointestinal inflammation is associated as well. Unfortunately pain killers would be required. I would suggest not to give any more food at this stage, but only water available. I am afraid there is not anything else that you can do rather than keep Maus indoors without any stress until you take her to your vet. Please do not hesitate to contact us again on the forum or by requesting a consultation if you have any more questions or to discuss it any further.
