This is very odd behavior...what do you think?
I have an adult (2-yrs. old) male Persian named Buster. Back in March, I bottle-fed some newborns (kept 2) and for the first week they were in the house, whenever Buster caught a glimpse of them...he would throw-up.
I would literally pick Buster up, bring him over their box where they were sleeping so he could take a peek and almost immediately Buster would start to gag...then throw-up. This behavior disappeared within a week or so of having the newborns in the house.
Presently, I have two 5-wk. old kittens that I am fostering & trying to wean (still on bottle). Yesterday, was the first time I let the little ones walk around their "nursery" room. Buster took a look in the room, kept on walking and guess what...he threw-up! He has thrown-up several times last night and into this morning.
He didn't eat breakfast and when I came home from work, he was hiding under the bed. I pulled him out...took a good look...eyes are clear...not dehydrated...body is cool...no runny nose, nothing hanging from his tush, etc. etc.
Buster decided to join us about 1/2 hour ago and went right to his food & water bowl. Ate like a little piggy. Before I call the vet. (for yet another appointment) any ideas why Buster would throw-up at the sight of fuzzy babies? Weird?
