Hi everyone!
My two year old adopted baby has some weird eating habits. I adopted her just over 6 months ago, and we've been dealing with a vomit issue on and off since. Sometimes her food will come back up shortly after eating it, and by sometimes I mean it'll be at least twice a week.
At first I was feeding her all dry food. I started mixing it with wet and it got better for a couple weeks. Then the regurgitation started again. So I did just wet, which again helped for a little bit but not permanently. Thought it might be hairballs, so I started mixing back in some dry hair all food with the wet. Helped for a bit, then it started again. Brought her to the vet, who looked at her teeth and decided she needed an extraction, which ended up being 7 teeth.
It's now been two weeks and she's started eating somewhat normally again. I thought the problem had been solved and it had just been the pain from the teeth, but she's thrown up twice since Friday. Any ideas??? The frustration is that every time I try to change something, she'll be fine for a bit, but it always comes back! I want her to get the nutrition she needs and not have to deal with this!
