Hello Dr. Rachel! I have a 9-year-old cat who has started chronically vomiting over the last 6 months. We took her to the vet once we had exhausted all options on our end (changing to a higher quality kibble, introducing salmon oil for hairballs). Last month the vet put her on a hypoallergenic diet, and recommended Pepcid AC and Sulcrated liquid for her vomiting. There was a very slight improvement, but after a week of being on the diet, she was back to vomiting multiple times a day once again. The Pepcid AC and sulcrate are also making her vomit, so we have stopped giving her those. She has had blood work and a stool sample which came back with perfect results. The vet also examined her for any bumps on her belly and listened to her lungs etc, again all appeared normal. Today she was so sick, I took her back to the vet again and now she has been put on a GI special food, and a probiotic. It is once again a waiting game to see if this will work. Have you ever heard of this? What have been your experience? The vet has also said they don't suspect any cancer etc as she has not lost any weight (She is a big girl coming in a 7 killos). Is this just diet? Any help you could give us would be great.
Thank you for your time!
