my cat is 5-6 months old and she has had all her shots so far at least to my knowladge. Today she had Foamy white puke. no food or anything else. I was wondering should i be worried? My little brother freaked out and thinks that Skye (our cat) is dying. I think its nothing to worrie about. She also had a respiratory problem and she does sneeze a bit.

Just to add to Hissys questions.....

Was the vomiting a one time thing???....How long ago did this happen??

And was she diagnosed w/ a resp problem by a vet....or is she showing signs of a resp problem that you have diagnosed yourself??

Also what time of day do you think she puked? If it was in the morning she may not have eaten, which can lead to foamy puke. I had one cat on meds and everytime I gave them to her she would foam and puke. If yours is on meds you may want to start there.

I live in the No. Va area near DC.
Don't panic. Cats vomit for alot of reasons. Sometimes they
just feel bad (like humans!). But, if there is a pattern, it happens
alot, or after eating or drinking... then its a problem.

Reasons to vomit are numberous - ulcers (yes cats do get them!), worms in the stomach (gross out!), kideny problems/failure, ate something bad (grass often is the culprit!)

Good luck and don't panic, afer you see vet!
