Don’t Let Your Vet Tell You This Is Normal Behavior — It’s Not

why cats vomit

STORY AT-A-GLANCE

  • Many cats routinely throw up, and in fact, the behavior is so common that both cat guardians and veterinarians often view chronic vomiting and hairballs in kitties as “normal” — which they are not
  • A cat with persistent hairball issues and/or vomiting deserves a complete medical workup and investigation into the root cause(s) of the problem so the behavior can be successfully resolved and the kitty returned to good health
  • There are many causes of vomiting in cats, including problems with diet and feeding habits, toxin ingestion and underlying medical conditions such as IBD
  • Helping a chronically vomiting cat involves identifying the cause(s) behind the GI upset and making appropriate dietary and/or lifestyle changes and/or resolving underlying medical conditions
