Question

Concerned about my older cat (9) who eats and then vomits and then goes back to eating this happens in a pattern pretty frequently should I be worried? Pet's info: Cat | American Shorthair | Female | spayed

Dr. Melanie, BVSc MS · Accepted Answer

Yes, I would be worried about Lily because vomiting isn't normal. In a senior cat, this vomiting could be caused by kidney disease, liver disease, diabetes, hyperthyroidism, a GI illness, or eating something rotten. She should see a vet tomorrow for this problem, and I recommend getting a geriatric blood panel and urinalysis done on her. Based on the results of these tests, the vet can discuss treatment options. Best of luck, I hope this helps!
