My cat is throwing up often. When should I be concerned and see a vet?

Pet's info: Cat | Domestic Shorthair | Male | neutered | 12 lbs

Hello, My cat will not stop throwing up. I would say on average it is over 15 times a month. Sometimes he will go a few days without throwing up and other days he will throw up 4 times in a day (always in multiples of 2). He has eosinophilic granuloma, but that is the only thing I know that he has. I have switched foods, litters, apartments, litter, ect. Not exactly too sure what to do anymore. I can give plenty more detail, just let me know what you need.

Vomiting this much isn't normal and it can be a sign of a medical issue. I'd have Oliver seen by a vet for this vomiting and recommend blood work, urinalysis, and possibly x-rays or an ultrasound. This can hopefully diagnose what is causing his vomiting so he can be treated. I hope this helps!
