My cat Paws spent threw up either white foam or liquid several times Thursday night. We took him to the vet Fri and she thought he had a really bad hairball and gave him laxatone and a shot for nausea. He threw up liquid again Sat morning so back to the vet. Didn't eat anything this entire time. After an xray she said he had a lot of hard stool and gave him an enema. He was kept over the weekend to be monitored. Can severe constipation cause lose of appetite and vomiting?
