I have an appointment scheduled with my vet next week and wan't to make sure I am fully prepared so any advice would be great!
This is about my 11 year old indoor cat named Coco. It has kept me up at night and I am fearing for the worst, sometimes I cry because I think about the day when I won't have her anymore, so obviously you can see I am a nervous wreck! I outlined below her current issues, she has otherwise been a healthy cat her entire life. It all started when I decided to switch her to a higher quality food and she's been vomiting ever since. Here is a current pic so you can see her weight:
OUTLINE:
[if !supportLists]· Cat Chow Naturals Plus Vitamins and Minerals Dry
-Was on that for entire life
-Fed at 4pm 1x per day – ½ cup total
[if !supportLineBreakNewLine]
[endif]
[if !supportLists]· Halo Spot's Stew Natural Dry Cat Food, Indoor Cat, Wholesome Chicken Recipe
-Switched approx. 1 month ago
-Same feeding schedule as above
-Vomited daily approx. 5-6 hours after feeding, vomit contained mostly undigested food w/a little mucus (cat hair 80% of the time)
[if !supportLineBreakNewLine]
[endif]
[if !supportLists]· TIKI Cat Canned Food for Cats, Hawaii Grill Ahi Recipe
-Switched 5/15
-Fed 2x a day 8 hours apart, room temperature, 2 teaspoons total w/hairball remedy 1 table total broken up into halves (vet’s best natural hairball relief).
-Vomited every other day same as above except vomit now resembling wet food (still 80% of time contains cat hair)
[if !supportLineBreakNewLine]
[endif]
[if !supportLists]· Coco daily activities:
-60% sleeping
-25% grooming
-15% playing, watching birds from window, eating, potty, etc.
-Coco gets brushed every other day, small amount of hair contained in hair brush
-Coco has lost about 1 lb. since switching to the wet food (perhaps because she is fed less now to help her get adjusted to it)
-No other changes present with Coco including appetite, temperament, physical symptoms, etc.
-She appears to have PICA, she loves chewing on plastic (which I try to remove at all times). And, she has always been a bit of a "nervous" cat since she was a kitten (shy, scared of people at first, etc.)
-I just ordered her NATURVET Enzymes and Probiotics
THANK YOU FOR YOUR HELP!!!
