My cat threw up mucus blood this morning?

Rangie Boy (I assume it is him because the girls do not go in that room) and Milo only eats dry food.

Rangie threw up a mucus-like small wad of blood this morning and there was a little piece of his wet food in there. (Reason I know it was not Milo). He seemed fine, running around this morning playing like usual. What can this be? Should I be overly concerned now or should I monitor it? Help please!

You really need to call your vet about something like that - vomiting blood is never good. It might just be an irritation, but it could also be something a lot more serious.

I'm a nervous mom - assuming he's still perky, and is eating, peeing and poo-ing normally, I'd probably call my vet just to report in and ask what else I should be looking for. If they told me to come in, I would - if not, at least they know I called and they'd get me in faster if I did observe any more 'bad' symptoms.

If he's acting lethargic, or any way else out of the normal, I'd probably be calling and saying I was coming in - and be calling from their parking lot.

Ok I am going to call the vet right now and be back with what was said. Thanks...

Vet said not to worry. Food could have gone down the wrong pipe and he strained to release it. If attitude and way change give them a call, if not then leave it be ...

That's good! It's always best to get the vet's reassurance

My Jack has problems with wet food which makes him vomit. I gave him some for the first time in weeks a couple of weeks ago and he started vomiting again and this time it was tinged with blood. I kept a close eye on him, but i saw him straining when it happend so i put it down to that because he's been fine now that he's back on his dry food.
