Cat vomiting, vet found nothing. Could it be a stomach virus?

Updated On September 23rd, 2025

Pet's info: Cat | Domestic Shorthair | Female | spayed | 3 years and 9 months old | 7 lbs

Yesterday my cat was vomiting every 2 hours or so. If she ate or drank she would throw up. She wasn't lethargic, was playing like normal. I took her to the vet and all blood work and x-rays were fine. She rested all night after the stress of being at the vet, but this morning she has thrown up a few times again. Could it be a stomach virus or something? Thanks for any advice.

You did the right thing by taking Paige into a vet right away. It could be she does have a GI illness causing her symptoms. I would monitor her tonight, and if she keeps vomiting, take her back into the vet in the morning. Best of luck.
