It's gotta be more than just furballs. What can i do? I'm so busy, I can hardly keep up with the cleaning. She's been doing this awhile, but since she's started she's caught a bad case of fleas (Which I cured) which left her badly scarred for a while, and she's also suffered nerve damage from a really powerful flea collar (Which i hadn't made her wera before and will not make her wera again). What's really going on here?

I'm kinda broke, being a student and all. I live in the city and the vets here charge $100 just to look at your pet, let alone treat her. But, of course , I better start saving up. Thanks everyone. I'll choose soon.

I can understand and appreciate your difficult financial position, however the suggestion to take your kitty to the vet is very valid. But, try to check first for anything abnormal in the kitty's vomit, i.e., worms or blood. If you find worms, then he/she can be treated with deworming medication from your local drugstore or pet store and it's not very expensive. If this is the case, just be careful to follow the instructions to the letter. Be sure not to over treat the kitty with the medicine

I know a cat that is probably 5lbs or less and is fine, some kittys are little. Throwing up everyday isnt good though, I have a cat that comes home every other day or so and she'll eat alot, then 5 minutes later go eat more and she'll throw up because shes ate so much in a very little time. Could it be he kitty was starved when your fiance found her and has just gotten into the habbit of eating way to much and just can't hold it down? My real suggestion would be though to have a vet look at her, could be more serious then what your fiance thinks.

The cat may have worms. Especially if the cat has fleas. What happens is that the cat will eat the flea when its biting. Somehow the digested fleas turn into a worms. You can try checking the cats stool to see what the worms look like. than sometimes you can get medicine at the pet store. If that doesn't work, call the vet.

My cat was doing the same thing...I took her to the vet and nothing was wrong in her case. He suggested I try a different dry food for cats with sensitive stomachs. So, I did and she does not throw up anymore. I would try switching foods and if that does not help, it could be a bigger issue and I would take the cat to a vet. Good luck.

You better take it to the vet. It could be a lot of things like the a type of cat food that doesn't agree with her but it could be an internal thing.

she could have an immune difeciency, much like human HIV, cats get FIV, and it can, and if she has it, will be fatal. with treatment from a vet, she can stlill live a long and happy life. Please, it is worth it, time and money, to go see a vet. they have them without an appointment at most Petsmart stores and you can even call humane society for advise and assistance. if it is stomache, get some baby food in jars, like veal, or chicken and rice, and change diet to lamb, easier on the tummy.

I wouldn't second guess this...take your cat to the VET and have her checked out. The Vomiting can be a number of anythings...but BIG CLUE (YOU CAN HARDLY KEEP UP WITH THE CLEANING) I'm not sure if you're referring to her vomiting or cleaning your house...but I wouldn't delay a trip to the vets.

MIne was suddenly vomitting daily, but was furballs, and switching to a furball control cat food helped the issue
