So recently, my cat Bailey has started to vomit food. Most of the time it is after eating, and it is essentially 'straight' food, no hairball nothing else. Her 'attitiude' doesn't seem to be at issue at all, as she's still a playful cat, doesn't seem sick, not lethargic (not anymore so then a regular cat ha ha). But she vomits the food. We have another cat, and there are no issues with the food in that aspect. This is a recent issue, in the last month I would say, and by no means is it frequent, as she continues to eat the same food, and doesn't have any issues for days/weeks on end.

We have her on MediCal Preventive Formula for Felines (blue) in wet and dry mixture. We feed them twice a day...

I don't know what to do? I know bring her to the vet, but its not an ongoing issue IMO, its a 'now and then' much like someone getting car sick (we are not taking her on car rides lol).

Anyone seen this or anything

Cheers

EDIT:

I'm wondering if something like 'cat grass' would help? if it is strictly a digestive issue

You might try another food for a few days, maybe a week, to see if the problem changes.

My boy Molasses does this. He is 10 1/2 years old and I've had him since he was 4 months old. He periodically would throw up his food not constantly but sporadically through the month. this has been going on for 10 years, I was told he just a little bit of a sensitive stomach, and since it wasn't all the time, he would be alright. I notice as he's getting older it gets less and less.

One of my bottle fed boys does this also. The others in the litter do not. He gets wet and dry. Mostly it is the whole, unchewed dry that comes back up right after eating. No health problems. I just feed more wet and less dry.

How about trying smaller feedings more times a day? Sometimes when mine are very hungry they end up eating too much and throw it back up. I feed mine wet in the am and when I get home from work at 5 and free feed hard. Good luck!
