Cat being sick

[FeebysOwner]

She does sick again today I think. Found food in her hut. I think she is allergic to purina branded food. Her stomach is sensitive to that. Will strictly stick to whiskas and not change it up

Sometimes, an abrupt change in dry cat food can cause vomiting - slower introductions to dry foods usually work better to allow a cat's system to adapt. Seems to happen more often with dry than wet for some reason. But, if she will willingly eats the Whiskas and doesn't vomit anymore, best to stick with it. If she tires of it, then you can consider slowly trying other dry foods.

Is she still eating at least some wet food?

Btw - if the food looks undigested and she threw up very shortly after she ate, that is called regurgitation and can happen if a cat eats too fast.

Yes she eats whiskas chicken wet pouch. It is regurgitation, there were whole amounts of food left. I have booked an appointment for her, waiting for the vets to come back to me for a date.

Did Coco do better today?

Did Coco do better today?

Yes thankfully she did better. Just had a good amount of fresh water as well. Was being a traitor today for some reason. For a good 4/5 hrs she wasn’t coming to my garden, was a few doors away. Probably because her other mates were there. Food didn’t even bribe her to come!

 

[FeebysOwner]

Uh oh. Is this the first time for her to wander so much/long?

Yes first time but she ended up coming back on her own terms. I could still see her in the garden a few doors away, she was on someones roof shed. She was taking a nap in the sun

She is, essentially, an outdoor cat - so, she will roam. Hopefully, never beyond your eyesight.

Yes hopefully. She likes to come in but after a certain amount of time she has to go out, cant stay! Likes to stay in the night for a nap

If she makes a habit of staying in overnight, that will help with her likely coming back even if she does roam during the day. Not much else you can do if you can't make her full-time indoor cat. It sounds like where you live is pretty safe. Around here, anyone who wants to ensure their cat stays alive makes it an indoor one - too many dangers out there - cars, coyotes, dogs, and sadly some cruel people too.

Tbf my area is pretty goof plus a lot of my neighbours etc have multiple cats that are outdoor. Most likely likes to chill with them

Yep, she wants to get all the good gossip!

Got her meaty meals with gravy and she licks the gravy first then has the meat

 

[FeebysOwner]

I am guessing that means she likes the gravy the best, but is OK with the meat too. She is eating her 'dessert' first so to speak. My cat would lick the gravy and leave the meat.

She hasn’t eaten much all day today. She ate quite a lot of food yesterday which is my I think she isn’t quite as hungry today

 

[FeebysOwner]

That is, in my mind, the first logical thing to think, and is probably the right way to go. All you can do is keep an eye on her. Maybe in her excursions elsewhere someone gave her a 'snack'?

Most likely not. Only place she goes is a few doors away to meet up with other mates probably she had some there. And goes in my next door neighbours garden.

She slept for a good 3 hrs. Normally she gets up after 20-30 mins but stayed in the same position for a good few hours!
