Pet's info: Cat | Persian | Female | 12 lbs
My cat started to gag and then had a hairball, threw up her food, and also liquid. She has been traveling a lot the past few days and she has moved into a new house. She's also been licking herself a lot and shedding a lot. I've also been feeding her a little bit more than she's used to (half a can of wet food in the morning and half of it at night and I also left dry food throughout the day but she doesn't eat it all, usually has only 1/3 can morning and night). Why is she throwing up so much?

Hello, sorry to hear about Nina. It sounds like she has been under alot of stress lately which can definitely make cats have some vomiting. You can try and make her more comfortable by using feliway diffuser to soothe her environment. Other things you can do is obtain Zylkene capsules to reduce stress and anxiety. If the vomiting persist, if she is not eating or drinking, or develops lethargy then she should be see by a veterinarian. I would recommend feeding her smaller and more frequent meals over larger meals. Hope this helps and best of luck.
