Hi,
I have a fairly long-haired 10 month old. He has never vomited before in his life, until a couple of days ago he vomited a browny liquid (also had mild diarrhoea soon afterwards, but only the once). He seemed fine in and of himself, so I just monitored him. Today he vomited the liquid again, but there was a small blob in it which looked like poop, but there was no smell to it. I picked it up with a tissue and pulled it apart and there was definitely fur in it. So I am assuming that my cat has just vomited his first hairball? Is this, therefore, nothing to be concerned about? Will he be okay now that it's out? Is there anything that I should look out for?
Sorry if this seems trivial, but he is my first cat so I'm not very experienced. I am also a chronic worrier when it comes to my baby!
Thank you.
Cheryl.
