Re: My cat is being sick
I would say that in respect of any kind of sickness your cat needs to see the vet. My Barney started out the same way, being sick in the mornings and it turned out to be a ruptured stomach

Re: My cat is being sick
Well guys, thanks for your help today. Took Jay to the vets tonight, everything went fine, thank goodness, was getting worried when people were telling me that it could be all sorts of problems! Vet has put it down to furballs however if it doesn't get any better after giving him the furball treat, we've to take him back, so lets hope this works
However, he wasn't sick this morning and gave him the stuff on his paw tonight, and he even liked it!
Thanks again for your help! Kim

Re: My cat is being sick
I had the same problems with Alfie.. the Vet thought it was furr balls.. but he was still being sick after his course of Katalax..

I noticed it was always after Alfie ate dry food that he was sick.. I now have him on a Raw diet and the odd pouch of Hi-Life, Applaws here and there but with no dry food what so ever and his sickness problem has gone.

Commercial cat foods (wet or dry) like Whiska's and the likes of are packed full of cerials and grains which were obviously making my boy sick.. maybe worth a try with your little man

I wouldn't say he is ill in any way, he is still eating his usual and drinking and still seems healthy and always friendly as usual.
I'm not sure if its a trip to the vets for us, but thought I may aswell try something like this to see if anyone can help me! I would be happy to hear anyones suggestions!
Getting very brave and even editing my first post! Ment to add in somewhere that he always seems to get the hicups when he has finished eating as he always seems to eat faster than his sister, but this hasn't affected him in the past!

Many Thanks, Kim
Hi, I have a very similar problem to yours. I have a British Blue Shorthair of 11 months who is also an indoor kitty. She gets anti-furball treats everyday and nutritional tablets aswell. She is sick about twice a week with symptoms the same as yours, but without the hicups. Can't help you with that, however some people on my post have suggested a sensitive stomach and to try changing the food to wheat/grain free and some raw food aswell. Simba is booked in at the vets on tuesday and I will let you know what happens.
Anyway I am going to try the wheat/grain free food etc, that LucyJ suggested on my post. If I get any positive results I'll let you know. If you get any results of your own I would be grateful if you could return the favour.
Good Luck

Re: My cat is being sick
It sounds like your cat is having the same problem as mine. Cats are CARNIVORES. We should know that and feed them meat, but we are so susceptible to marketing that we buy whatever anyone tells us is "good for them". Most of what is on the shelves is full of grain and/or meat by products, ash and, basically, junk. Over time, cats will become allergic or develop symptoms similar to acid reflux (according to something I read). My cat has wasted away to almost nothing from vomiting up his dry (expensive) food. I am in the process of buying and feeding him wet food that is full of organ meat and no grain. He is doing so much better already! No more throwing up until I accidentally got a can of chicken and RICE. Oops. I would bet it is food allergies and a reaction to all the grain in the food. Good luck! Give him a real can of tuna and see what happens...
