Why is my outdoor cat not eating, sleeping a lot, and throwing up?

It sounds as Boots 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. if the vet thinks it is more serious she will need a blood test and possibly an ultrasound in order to find out what is wrong.

Poor Boots! It definitely sounds like something isn't right. Unfortunately, these are all very vague symptoms that could be caused by almost any kind of illness, so it's not possible to say what's wrong without being able to examine him and run some tests. Because of this, I would recommend taking him to the vet for an exam as soon as you're able to. He/she can do blood work, x-rays, or other testing if needed to help diagnose the problem and see what kind of treatment is needed.

Hello, thank you for your question about BooBoo. Based on the symptoms that you are describing it is possible that BooBoo may be experiencing some mild GI upset secondary to ingesting something outside or due to another underlying cause. Since BooBoo's signs are still fairly mild and he is eating some food you could continue to monitor him for the next 24-26 hours for signs of improvement. It would also be reasonable to offer him a bland diet to help settle his stomach such as a canned food or boiled chicken/hamburger and rice (if he will eat this). Alternatively you could have BooBoo seen by your veterinarian so that they can perform an examination to evaluate for any concerns. Depending on the results of their examine they may recommend additional diagnostics (such as bloodwork or x-rays) or may recommend supportive therapies. Hope this helps, good luck!

Thank you for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! Many conditions can cause the signs you are describing, from internal masses to infections and intestinal issues. Twinkle should be seen by a vet right away - they can perform bloodwork and x-rays to determine what is going on and recommend the appropriate treatment.

Hi there and thanks for posting on Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! Bobo's symptoms do sound concerning. There can be many medical causes for decreased appetite, decreased thirst and lethargy. There is really nothing that can be done for at home for this without getting a diagnosis first from Bobo's veterinarian. I would recommend he see his veterinarian asap for an exam and evaluation. He may need blood work, x-rays, or other diagnostics as needed. I hope this helps!

Hi there and thank you for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach to address your concern. Based on your description, I am quite concerned she may be dehydrated and may have some systemic disease or infection going on. I would have a veterinarian examine her so that the most appropriate diagnostic and treatment recommendations can be made. I hope this helps! Please let me know if you have any further questions / concerns and I would be happy to help further.

Hi there and thank you for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach to address your concern. If Shadow's appetite is decreased and she is lethargic, I would recommend having her seen by a veterinarian so that the most appropriate diagnostic and treatment recommendations can be made. I would have her blood tested in addition to the physical examination to see if there are any obvious abnormalities. I hope this helps and that Shadow gets better soon! Please let me know if you have any further questions or concerns and I would be more than happy to help you further.
