Hi everyone
I have 2 cats both dsh male and female about 6 months old. They've been getting swollen red sores around they're mouth and throwing up around the same time every couple weeks since I got em. I don't think it's the food because I changed it. Please help🥺

Go to vet and rule out Herpes

I don't think this exactly looks like chin acne which is caused usually by the use of plastic bowls. Switching to glass or stainless steel is usually a huge help with that. However, vomiting is not a part of that condition. This could be a food allergy, which requires sort of an elimiation diet to see what is causing it; however, I think that you do need to see the vet to get a baseline on what this might be and then proceed from there.
