Hi, yesterday my cat had Upper GI Series and he has megaesophagus.  Anyone familiar or has any suggestions re feeding. please let me know.  I elevated his feeding dishes but he takes the food in his mouth and eats it off the floor!!!  Glad to finally get a diagnosis but wish there was treatment...

He is an indoor only cat, was on grain free wet for over 3 wks with no difference, also gluten free wet also with no effect.  He has very fine soft short hair that I brush or comb,  I will ask the vet about worms as he sometimes does a throaty cough spell.  Thanks, will update later this week.

Been on grain free dry, grain free wet and regular wet with no improvement, taking him for 2nd opinion at vets this week, acts normally otherwise, has gained weight on wet food which is good but eats alot of it.  Will let you know what new vet thinks.

He is an indoor cat, Will try grain-free wet only, Financially will have to keep other cat on dry food which he gets free choice so he will have to have meal times from now on.  My IBD cat weighs 12 lbs, would 6 oz a day be enough?

Thanks for your input, he is still vomiting, at night and sometimes if I go out.  I tried an expensive G/I dry food from the vet but it didn't help.  He is currently on grain free wet and dry and hairball high quality food as there is a little bit of hair in the emesis.  Yesterday, no vomiting...

Unfortunately he still vomited on the SE so have been switching his food, both wet and dry to grain free, will give it some time but so far 1 day without vomiting

I am going to get SE and try it, fingers crossed, thanks for everyone's help, I will update re SE and premium foods as they happen.

Thanks, I did remove the food at night for quite awhile but he continued to vomit at night.  In Canada, the Fancy Feast is not marked Classic, I'd read about looking for Classic on another blog .  It is just very frustrating to wake up to a mess on the carpet every morning.  And I just want him...

Thanks, he is on Purina Pro Plan Veterinary diets Gastroenteric, he gets it free choice  plus 1/4 can Fancy Feast mid-afternoon.  The vomit is usually digested food with a little hair in it.  He looks like he has some Oriental in him so it is very fine, short hair.  It seems like any hair makes...
