One of my cats gets inappetance sometimes from hairballs. We've had our first hairball incidents since they've been on egg yolk lecithin. It didn't affect Lazlo, but Tuxie's appetite was off for a couple of meals. :nod:
But FYI, clear vomit with hair in it most likely isn't a hairball problem. Vomiting undigested food hours after a meal is - the hairball is stuck down at the bottom of the stomach, preventing gastric emptying. Clear vomit is just bile, and the loose hair in it is normal, because cats ingest their hair. O course, if she had a hairball that wasn't completely blocking digestion, that could have been why she was otherwise eating OK, but maybe having it in her tummy created bile, and the hair that came up just hadn't rolled into the hairball yet... Sometimes, we just never know. :lol3:
Whatever it was, I'm glad she's feeling better!
