I found this precious little kitty, sick as a dog etc. Well fast forward 3 years later. He seems to be a Turkish Angora mix. Soft as clouds (okay silk). The problem is he keeps throwing up after eating. He is picky so I can only give him what he wants (one type of brand and flavor) It helps when I give him hairball remedy but when he throws up. But it's not fur that he throws up, it's his food within 3-7 minutes. He keeps it down when I do give him the remedy (which he hates) but it seems that something i have to do almost everyday.
He is about 4 years old, only 6-7 lbs. He is totally healthy according to my vet after spending hundreds for blood test, xrays etc to make sure he is fine. They can't give him pills or liquids for his throwing up because he will either lock his jaw or throw it right up.
The vet said he is very skinny but we can't do anything about it.

He has dry food all the time and most times does not chew it.
Can food is twice a day and is Medley's Wild Salmon Florentine in a delicate sauce w/ garden greens. I put out a tablespoon, when he eats it I put out another and it stays there for hours. As soon as he eats it I put out another to feed him in small portions throughout the day. It doesn't matter if he eats a small portion or the full tablespoon he will throw up either amount.
If I put anything else down he smells it, tries to bury it and walk away without eating.
He doesn't throw up everyday, maybe anywhere like 2-3 times a week. If I am lucky and use furball remedy almost everyday it will be up to every other week. I just want to put more weight on him. Turkish Angoras are known to be slender but this is crazy slender.
Any advice to help keep his food down?
