Pet's info: Cat | American Shorthair | Female
I took in a calico, age unknown. She has been vomiting up her food. Not all the time maybe once a week. Could this be from over eating? She seems healthy otherwise

Having screening bloodwork run to rule out liver/kidney issues is recommended, however the vomiting may be due to hairballs or a sensitivity to the food she is currently on. Giving over the counter laxatone daily may help if the issue is hairballs. If it doesn’t, and bloodwork comes back normal, switching to a prescription food such as Royal Canin Gastrointestinal Fiber Response may resolve the issue as it did for my 2 year old male ragdoll cat. Peeka is beautiful! Good luck!
