I have an 11 year old Maine Coon mix who is an indoor kitty. A few years ago she started vomiting constantly and then quit eating all together. She went from a 15lb cat down to a 6lb cat in a very short time period. She was dying. I took her to the vet and after 2 months & a feeding tube, we got her healthy again. They never determined the actual cause of her stopping eating. They said it was probably something viral that left her sick and then she stopped eating due to her vomiting. So she's been a happy healthy 15lb kitty again for the past 3 years. Now, for the past several months, she has been vomiting again. Not like before, but still she vomits daily. It's getting worse. She vomits every time she eats. It's not the entire amount that she eats as it was when she was getting really sick a few years ago, but enough to cause concern. I'm curious if anyone knows if she could just be having trouble digesting the dry food? She's been fed the same food throughout her life. Purina Indoor Cat food. Well, actually when she started vomiting for a few months we tried a sensitive digestive blend but saw no difference so we went back to her regular food. I'm considering switching her to wet food to see if that will help. Has anyone's older kitty every started experiencing these type of troubles? I should mention her stool and urine are fine. Just vomits. She even feels fine it seems. Just vomits. :-/ I'm at a loss and unfortunately, I'm not at a financial point where I can take her to the vet just yet. Thank you for any input or assistance you all have to offer.
