Tigger keeps throwing up
29 Answers
Took Tigger and Blue for the yearly jabs yesterday and Blue has lost a bit of weight and her temperatuwas slightly low. She has also been throwing up a lot over the past couple of weeks. The vet has done some blood test and I'm getting the results this week.
I know I should wait for the results but does anyone recognise these symptoms and what it could be?

The bile he was making reacted with his food and he threw everything back up as soon as he ate it. Cats' kidneys can be quite badly damaged before it shows. He lost weight and was dehydrated, but medication soon brought his levels back up. Fingers crossed, tigger.
Called the vet today and she said that Blue has problem with her liver. Can't remember what the name of it is but I was given 3 options. 1) Get xrays done; 2) Give her tablets once per day; 3) Give her special dietry food. I opted for the 3rd option as the vets said we could try this for a month and then get her bloods checked again and then possibly xrays. The tablet one would be too difficult as it needs to be taken whole and not mixed with food.
Hi Hop, unfortunately it wasn't just a case of furballs as it was happening far too often and she was bringing her food up.
My cats were named before I got them from Battersea Jonny. They were 2 years old when I got them as I wasn't permitted kittens, so I just kept their names.
