My 14 yr old cat Sister has been vomiting pretty regularly the last year. Probably every other day, rarely with a fur ball. Sometimes just mucus. Sometimes food and mucus. I hoped that once she had a dental, which was done in October, the delay hinged on getting her diabetes regulated first, she would improve. (They did two crown amputations due to resorptive lesions.) Current vet suggested allergies and prescribed pills. Sister is impossible to pill but when she did get a dose, she stopped eating and drinking for 18 hours immediately after. For a cat that is addicted to water, that really scared me. Sometimes she acts nauseous, chews on some cardboard or paper.
She rarely sneezes. There's no scratching. But all of her life she has had a runny nose from time to time, clear stuff that she removes with her tongue. Never goopy eyes.
Do you think she could be swallowing mucus causing her to vomit? When I asked for chest x-rays in June to rule out possible asthma, the vet listened to her lungs and said it was not needed. She was treated for upper respiratory and it resolved. Her pre-dental bloodwork looked pretty good with possible signs of very very early stages of kidney issues.
I guess my question is, for those of you who have allergy kitties, does it sound like that? By the way, she is no longer on insulin. And her gums look fine. Thank you.
