    Frequent Vomiting, older cat

    So I'm sort of to the point where this is causing me pretty serious concern and since I have to work today, I can't take my cat to the vet. Help me internet!  The cat in question is, I want to say, starting to push 14 - 15 years old. He seems to be fine other than the fact that he's a) groomed...
