My 13-year-old cat is throwing up his dry food daily. What's wrong?

Poor Sweetie! In older cats, I would be concerned that the vomiting is caused by kidney disease, inflammatory bowel disease, a foreign body, or intestinal lymphoma. I would take her into the vet first thing in the morning. The vet can do a physical exam, routine blood tests, a urinalysis, x-rays, and possibly an ultrasound to determine what is causing her vomiting. Once the cause is found, the vet can recommend a possible treatment.

You may want to look at his teeth, especially his molars (cheek teeth). Mikkel may have a lot of tartar on his teeth and severe inflammation of his gums which then hurt when he eats dry food. If you see brown concrements on his teeth, then he should be seen by a veterinarian and get his teeth cleaned under anesthesia. There is no need to have a tooth ache, and the bacteria in tartar can actually cause heart and kidney problems.

Eating too fast is not a common reason for vomiting in cats, despite the fact that you can find this misleading information over the internet too often. chronic vomiting in cats is almost always a sign of a medical problem, the most common conditions causing this are pancreatitis, IBD and lymphoma. another common condition is kidney failure but it is not common at this age. i would recommend taking Arlo to the vet in order to get it checked and treated ASAP.

Poor Sonic! If he's been vomiting every day for a month, a vet visit is definitely warranted as this is not normal. He may have a GI problem such as chronic pancreatitis or a foreign body in his stomach, a systemic illness like hyperthyroidism or chronic kidney disease, or may have an allergy or intolerance to something in his diet. Your veterinarian can do some diagnostic testing if needed to help determine what is causing the vomiting and get him started on appropriate treatment.

I'm sorry to hear Aries isn't doing well! Unfortunately, vomiting like this can be due to a number of things, which is why a vet visit is important. Issues such as a hairball or parasites can cause vomiting, along with functional issues that may be causing problems with digestion. Other issues can include food allergies (male cats tend to be allergic to ingredients such as fish or chicken in their foods) or even an issue with how often you are feeding Aries. Smaller meals more often can sometimes help vomiting if it's every morning, especially if Aries goes all night without any food. Offering a small meal right before bed (or a treat) can sometimes keep the stomach full enough to keep it from getting too empty and causing vomiting. However, since this has been prolonged and there are so many potential causes, a vet visit is always best.

It sounds as Snow is suffering from a gastrointestinal condition, possibly an infection. it could also be due to ingestion of a foreign body material. i would recommend taking her to the vet the first chance you get, she will need to be checked first, if the vet thinks it's a simple gastrointestinal infection she will need an anti vomiting injection, antibiotics and a special food for a few days in order to get better.

I would be concerned this is related to Duster's kidney problems, as kidney failure is very common in senior cats and causes vomiting. It could also be a problem with his liver. I'd have him seen by a vet right away for this problem. Best of luck.
