My cat does this same thing and it doesn't matter what i food i feed her and how many times i take her to the vet. He didn't have an answer for me either. Its not hairbalss or worms or anything that he can detect. I know its so wierd. I have even tried expensive iams and science diet...
I have taken to leaving the food dish full at all times. It stops her from gulping down the food so fast that she regergitates. She now eats smaller meals throughout the day. She hasn't stopped completely with this digusting habit... We laugh about my bulimic cat...Vet said that she just doesn't take the time to eat and that I should move her dish to a quiet private area where she can eat in peace and not have to worry aboutbeing stepped on or bothered by the other cat (competition for food) or the noise and etc....it seems to decrease the occurances, but not eleviate them.

This cat needs to be seen by your vet--NOW! If this has been going on for a while, I cannot imagine why you haven't taken her in before now. She could have an abscessed tooth/teeth and cannot chew her food. This is a very expensive breed of cat, and if you love her, you'll get her medical attention NOW. I surely hope you will get her into the vet, and best of luck to you for the out-come.

Her gut may be clogged (with cord that was wrapped around a roast, or dental floss). She may not be digesting. Try a hairball gel on her paws or nose and see if anything will pass through her tummy! You may have to switch to a food for sensitive stomach. The vet clinics have food for sensitive tummy. I feed Royal Canin Special 33 (purple bag) and my kitty is not ill as often. Science Diet also makes a food for sensitive stomach as well.

If the cat had worms she would not be throwing them up or neccesarily losing weight. But either way she needs a vet, and fast, this could be any number of things and only a qualified professional can help you.

take her into the vet at this point and find out what is going on. it could be that she needs something stronger for hairballs than what she is getting in the hairball food that you are giving her. also in part she could be having problems with her teeth that could be having trouble with her chewing.

Do not worry,if she is not acting sick,it is nothing serious.One of my cats used to do that for years,she only stopped recently.I did change their food,that could have been the problem,but she also might have just outgrown it.Anyways now I feed them:Whiskas dry food,or occasionally store brand food(not any of these are colorful ones!)Try ,it might help!

Take it to the vet because they will know. Maybe she has an allgergie to this time of year or she got diarea. Talk to your vet about whats she's been eating and maybe it's time to switch foods.
