Do you notice any connection between how fast your cats are eating and whether they throw up? Some cats eat too fast and make themselves sick, so slowing down their eating pace is a helpful move. You can buy slow feeder bowls at pet stores that have raised spirals and grooves so they have to pick out the kibbles individually, or little feeder balls that the cat knocks around to dispense their meals. You can also use items from around the house, like empty egg cartons, so the cat has to take their food out of the egg spots, or even a box full of crumpled newspaper with kibble distributed throughout. You could try putting their food in a regular bowl but putting ping pong balls in the bowl too, so they can’t scarf as quickly. As a bonus, these kind of feeding strategies also provide great enrichment/mental stimulation for your cats.

My cat would inhale his dry food. And he was throwing up a few times a week. Tried the feeder balls and a slow feeder bowl. But he wouldn't give either the time of day. He is 100% off dry food now and no more throwing up. Oh.. for dry food he was getting less than half of a 1/4cup of Dr Elsey's clean protein chicken dry.

corvidae they are just eating too fast i think . i did go to amazon to look at feeders like you had recommended but with 2 cats it would be hard to not them at the same time . they are used to sharing the same feeder ... thank you for your help
