My cat throws up often. Should I try Iams sensitive stomach food?

Updated On September 23rd, 2025

Pet's info: Cat | American Shorthair | Female | spayed | 10 lbs

My Pumpkin is throwing up every so often. I have changed her food to Purina dry cat food that's gentle on her stomach but it's not working. We monitor her food all the time. We don't know what to do can't afford to take her to the doctor. I thought about giving her Iams cat food. Also she will not eat any wet canned cat food. Once in a blue moon she will eat tuna but mostly with water mixed in. She is a calico tutti. Please help

You can try Iams to see if that helps Pumpkin. They have a sensitive stomach formula for cats, and it's an excellent. Just make the food switch slowly to avoid any further GI upset. If this food switch does not help, she will need to see a vet. I hope this helps.
