We cannot really tell you what to do or what is wrong. Can you get a second vets opinion?

Basically you are saying that the cat vomits everything back up? Try experimenting with different kinds of food in the meantime. Are you trying wet and dry cat food? I don't know what is available in Isreal. How old is your kitten?

Sounds like megaesophagus, but could be a number of things.

Ask the veterinarian the name of genetic problem, and we might be able to help you more.

Did he do a blood test? Provide medication?

If not - you need to find a VET who cares NOW - this one sounds like he dosen't.

Your cat might need fluids provided since she cannot swallow. I hope you can get another vet's opinion on it. She is very young to not be eating for so long.

Bless you for taking her in and caring for her!

Oh dear, that picture is pretty scary.

That looks more like foaming at the mouth, a symptom of poisoning, to me than it looks like vomit. Please take your kitten to a new veterinarian. I hope you can find out what is going on. She is precious.

My thoughts exactly. Please see a second vet.

Clearly, you know that this is a serious situation, but you might not be aware of that it is especially dangerous for cats to go without food, even for a few days, as they can go into liver failure - so it is critical that you get to a vet who can help you both.

I agree with everyone else; please take your little girl to a different vet. This is a very serious situation. Zissou's Mom is right--that truly doesn't look like vomit. I do have one piece of advice that might sound silly---the next time you have your kitty at the vet's office (which should be ASAP) feed her something. That way the vet can see exactly what is happening.
It was so kind of you to take her in. I hope you can find some help for her. Best of luck.

This sounds bad. If she can't eat at all, she needs to go to a vet that will DO something, and not just say "its genetic"..What the heck is that? She needs medical attention.

It might not be that easy to find a good veterinarian for him, though, depending on what part of Israel he is in. He's obviously doing his very best.

Sending vibes! Both for you and the kitten.
