👉 Causes Cat Vomits Frequently
0.Eat Papper
1. Eat too fast
One possible cause of frequent vomiting is that your cat is eating too much, too fast. It can happen to any healthy cat. You will notice that your cat vomits immediately after eating food that is not difficult or difficult to digest.
2.Hairball
Although hairballs are common in cats, they're no laughing matter. Hairballs that are not vomited up can cause a bowel obstruction. Surgery is required to remove the obstruction.
3. Food allergies
The most common food allergies in cats are beef, fish and chicken. Allergies can also occur to other ingredients. Cats with food allergies are treated with special diets that contain ingredients they were not previously exposed to.
4. Poisoning
The poison can also cause sudden vomiting, which is an emergency. The average home contains several sources of toxins:-
• Antifreeze:- Ethylene glycol antifreeze contains a poisonous substance. It is attractive to cats and dogs because of its sweet taste. Symptoms of poisoning include nausea and vomiting. Choose antifreeze with propylene glycol, which is labeled non-toxic by the US Food and Drug Administration.
• Other Household and Yard Toxins:- Possibility to poison your pet with human insecticides, toxic cleaners, insect sprays, and bed bugs and garden sprays to control bed bugs and insects.
• Remember Cat Food and Treats:- Be careful when losing pet food. Some of the memories are due to the fact that the food contains dangerous toxins. Read about affected food brands, then make sure you don't have any food in your home. If you do, follow the instructions for the recall and get rid of it immediately.
5. Stomach Ache Disease
Another cause of vomiting is inflammatory bowel disease. This is usually accompanied by diarrhea and weight loss. The disease can occur anywhere in a cat's intestinal tract, including the stomach (gastritis), small intestine (end), or large intestine (colitis).
6.Pancreatitis
Pancreatitis is an inflammation of the pancreas, which is part of the endocrine and digestive systems. Cats with pancreatitis show vomiting, drowsiness, diarrhea, fever, and a reluctance to drink or eat water.
7. Acute Kidney Disease
Severe kidney disease (CKD) is common in older cats. The kidneys filter waste from the blood. Symptoms of CKD include vomiting, drowsiness, diarrhea, weight loss and excessive water intake. While CKD is a progressive disease, early intervention can have good results.
8. Feline Diabetes
Diabetes is another endocrine disease. With pancreatitis, vomiting is common and often one of the first symptoms to be misdiagnosed. Other symptoms include increased thirst, hunger and urination as well as weight loss and muscle weakness.
9. Hyperthyroidism
Frequent vomiting accompanied by increased appetite and weight loss are also symptoms of hyperthyroidism or an overactive thyroid gland, which is part of the endocrine system. You may also experience symptoms such as irritability, diarrhea, weakness and excessive thirst. In addition, your cat's fur may look as if it is not being groomed normall.
👉Treatment of cat vomiting
If your cat vomits for two days in a row, call your vet. They will determine whether your cat should be examined. You may be able to treat your cat at home.
Treatment of your cat's vomiting depends on the underlying cause. For example, the treatment of feline inflammatory bowel disease involves medication. If your cat also has food allergies, they require a limited diet. If your cat has kidney disease, your vet may recommend blood pressure medication and increased fluids. Hyperthyroidism can be treated with surgery, medicines or radioactive iodine etc.
👉How to Stop Vomiting
You can also take actions to help prevent or reduce the frequency of vomiting in your cat:
If your cat eats too fast, try taking things slow. Eat small meals frequently. Serve the food on a paper plate instead of a cup. Automatic feeders provide a certain amount of food at a time.
If your cat vomits soon after eating, put something bad (such as a golf ball) in its bowl. This forces your cat to eat around the object to get the food out. The object should be clean and large enough that your cat cannot swallow it.
If you suspect a food allergy, a change in diet is in order. Be sure to read the list of ingredients carefully.
Routine veterinary exams are an excellent preventive measure against health problems. Your doctor can diagnose medical conditions at an early stage.
To prevent the potential for poisoning, keep toxic chemicals, medications, and other potentially dangerous chemicals away from your pet. Remember, cats are inquisitive and may run or jump on things you don't suspect. Keep your cat out of the garage. Take care of your pet regularly.
To prevent hair loss, brush your cat and prevent overheating. Frequent use of a high quality cat brush or de-shedding tool can go a long way in preventing a veterinary emergency. You can also try foods that reduce hair fall which have high fiber content. Although laxatives are available to help the hairball move more easily through digestion, it is not recommended that you give your cat a laxative without the approval and supervision of a veterinarian.
