On average Marley pukes once every other week or so. His appetite, elimination, and play haven'y changed, he doesn't seem ill. He does get a variety of wet food, but it's been this way since we brought him home at 8 weeks, he will be one year next week. Right now he is eating weruva (http://www.weruva.com/), meow mix pouches and Innova dry kibble.
When he pukes it's not in food form, it's usually in the shape of a small log like object, I can't see any kibble or meat peices, it just looks like mush but it's somewhat compacted. There is always a bit of hair in it but it's not excessive. Does this sound normal? I don't know what could be causing it but Its starting to worry me that is seems to be frequent....2-3 times a month at the most. Any thought on what could be causing it??

I wonder if it might be a hairball? Mine have done that, and that's sort of what it looked like. Do you brush him a lot? You might call the vet's office and describe (or send a picture, if possible) over - they might suggest a hairball remedy if that's actually what it is.
