My 2 year old spayed female tabby has recently fell ill. Last Thursday I noticed she'd thrown up saliva & figured it might just be a hairball. Her appetite was still normal at that point. However, every day since Thursday she's thrown up (no sign of food in her vomit) & its not like her to throw up. She started acting out of character & very mellow when shes normally bouncing off the walls. After she'd vomit she was acting uncomfortable & would go into her bed & sleep, it was clear she's under the weather. Monday I took her to the vet & they checked her out. She was running a fever & dehydrated. They decided to keep her overnight & ran some tests. The ruled out FIV and leukemia and blood work showed nothing. She threw up while there last night but her fever was down & they said she was doing well so I took her home around 5. Within an hour of getting home she already threw up twice (a lot of foam came up). The vet said it might be because she hadn't ate there so I tried feeding her Iams & Hills prescription ID which she had no interest in. I than tried giving her wet food I had on hand (Natural Balance Chicken & Green Pea LID) which she had a few licks of so I tried mixing it with white rice & she had about a teaspoon of. I than added the chicken for her bland diet & she had no interest. She also keeps spitting her meed out when I try to pill her. Any suggestions? I'm so frustrated cause I don't know what's wrong & she doesn't seem to be improving & perking back up.
