I have a six-year-old male cat who lived his early life outside (fed by various people) until caught and tamed. He has been very happy and active indoors in my small apartment for the last three months. I feed him Hill's Science Diet and a very occasional Fancy Feast Medley and have never, since I've owned him, had problems with him throwing up his food; neither have I noticed worms. But a few days ago, he lost his appetite and began to throw up food. He seems very fatigued, won't run around or play with his toys, and won't watch squirrels from his window. He just sits around and sleeps with me. I'm very worried and plan to take him to the vet next week but don't understand how he could have contracted an illness when he never goes outside. Could it be something more serious (cancer)? Any thoughts are appreciated.
