Yesterday morning, I gave my cat Sibylla a small dollop of Weruva Cats in the Kitchen - The Double Dip (Chicken and Beef au jus) straight from the freshly-opened can, and she seemed to really love it. She ate perhaps 1/3 of it, and vomited it up about 30 minutes later, heaving twice after making some very unusual meowing noises. Her vomit was mostly clear or translucent liquid (not foamy, if I remember correctly) and it contained undigested chunks of the food along with a treat (also undigested) she had eaten earlier.
She was back to her usual self afterward and has not shown any lasting effects since. In fact, I put a much smaller amount of the same food (this time, microwaved for a few seconds) in with her usual dry kibble this morning, and she has not vomited up that meal. I had tried other wet foods prior to The Double Dip, which she did not seem to enjoy nearly as much as this.
I called the vet, and the staff told me that I might be changing her diet too quickly or feeding her food that's less than fresh (which is not the case).
Based on these observations, what could have caused the vomiting in my cat? Could it have been that I had upset her stomach by giving her only wet that time instead of mixing it in with her usual food?
