I have recently been to the vet and had a checkup and her health issues have been addressed and I'm out of money for more vet bills for her right now. She is a 13 year old Siamese with a long history of vomitting. She's been doing considerably better till the last week or so.
Now every morning after eating, she throws up. I've fed her late for dinner, so I know she may be gorging. I tried giving her less, but she threw up again. She has the same food for dinner and never throws it up, so I don't think it's the food. It seems to be the timing. She has kidney issues, so I need to keep her on wet food (I use Stella & Chewy's rehydrated freeze dried b/c it has low phosphorus counts). She's also very perky, more social since a recent surgery, and (not surprising) extremely chatty, so I don't think she's feeling badly.
She is underweight (has always been), but has recently put back on 1.5 lbs. This is why the sudden throwing up is surprising. We've had none for a about two months prior to this last week.
I am going to try raising the food w/ an obstruction, but I have canine, opportunistic thieves about and it seems dangerous to try and get her to eat at the top of her cat tower (the only place I can think of giving it to her where she would be uncomfortable eating it on the same level. I'm worried that at her age, she might lose balance and not pay close attention. Her eye sight is diminishing. Any other ideas?
